This script queries the SEC API for filings with a "Item 1.05" in the full text search and matches tickers from a watchlist. Ideally this script would be run on an interval (mind the API limits!) against a list populated manually or by a 3rd party risk job.
By default the script will search between the current date and 30 days ago. This can be changed by modifying the start_date and end_date variables in the API body.
