As you can see from the details here, they hardly needed "sophisticated analysis:" https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2021-06-16/don-t-pay-gambling-deb

  After they knew who to investigate it likely was easy, but I don't see how they discovered who to investigate in the article you linked. You need some way to detect smoke before you can go looking for the fire. And given the large number of trades in the US stock markets, I don't believe this is an easy problem.

  Levine’s analysis is regarding to the evidence gathered from the investigation while the statement from the press release refers to whether or not a group of transactions warranted investigation in the first place. The “sophisticated analysis” the SEC refers to is akin to an if statement while the evidence set forth in the complaint (and referenced by Levine) is the result of running “then investigate” when $isSuspicious returned true.
