Buys plotted up, sells down; bar height is the disclosed dollar value (shares × reported price). Our Form 4 history is only complete from mid-2026, so early months are sparse — the series fills in as more filings land. Open-market purchases and sales only.

How to read a Form 4

Insiders — a company’s officers, directors and holders of more than 10% of its stock — must report any trade in that stock to the SEC on a Form 4 within two business days. Each row here is one transaction from those filings.

The transaction code tells you what happened: Purchase (P) and Sale (S) are open-market trades — the ones markets watch most; Award (A) is a granted stock or unit, Option exercise (M) converts options into shares, and Gift (G) is a transfer for no consideration. Awards, exercises and gifts are largely compensation or administrative, not a directional bet.

One caveat on sales: many are made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan scheduled months in advance, so a sale is not automatically a bearish signal. Insider activity is a noisy input — read it alongside the filings, not on its own.

See also CGNX’s full analysis or the market-wide insider trading feed. The tabs above jump to CGNX’s other SEC data.

Source: SEC Form 4 filings for CGNX, parsed from EDGAR. Transaction prices are as reported in the filing — SEC public-domain data, not market quotes. Values are shares × reported price where both are disclosed; grants and gifts often carry no price. A delayed record of what insiders reported, not a live position or a recommendation.

Research and education only — not financial advice. TENKis not a registered investment adviser or broker-dealer and gives no personalized advice. Every call is impersonal — identical for all users, generated on a schedule from SEC filings plus a delayed/third-party price feed — may be wrong or out of date, and is not a recommendation to buy or sell any security. The operator and an affiliated trading operation may hold or trade the securities TENK rates; see Disclosures. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Do your own research.
