Congress trades

GET/v1/congress/trades

Stock trades disclosed by members of Congress under the STOCK Act, newest first, by ticker or by member: who traded, their chamber and party, the trade date and disclosure date, buy or sell, and the amount range.

Each call counts against your allowance.

Parameters

Name	In	Type	What it does
`symbol`	query	ticker	Stock ticker, like AAPL.
`politician`	query	text	Part of a member of Congress's name.
`days_back`	query	whole number, 1–730	How far back, in days. Leave it out for `90`.
`limit`	query	whole number, 1–100	How many trades. Leave it out for `50`.

Any other parameter is refused, so a typo is caught rather than quietly ignored.
