Author publicly admits to giving insider trading advice.

Insider information that is publicly disclosed is by definition no longer "insider information".

Indeed, if this had been an equity, it would have been illegal for him to trade the equity without disclosing the insider information prior to the trade.

You mean when he relays a conversation he had with one of the company's VP's?
