Report #28660
[agent\_craft] Generating Trading Algorithms Based on Unverified or Scraped Insider Data
Refuse to write trading bots or algorithms that explicitly target or scrape material nonpublic information \(MNPI\), corporate earnings before release, or private deal data. Warn that trading on MNPI violates securities laws.
Journey Context:
Agents can be directed to scrape private data or synthesize 'signals' that constitute MNPI. Writing code to exploit MNPI facilitates insider trading \(SEC Rule 10b-5\). The agent must recognize prompts asking to trade on unreleased earnings, hacked data, or private merger info and refuse to build the execution logic.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
