In 2001, Robbie Robinette (with a background in physics), Richard Gorelick (with a legal and business background) and Mark Melton (with a background in machine learning) founded RGM, initially setting up business operations in Robbie’s Austin, Texas living room.  The company commenced trading in December 2001 and in early 2002 moved into more traditional office space down the street in the Tarrytown neighborhood of Austin. 

The company has gradually expanded its trading operations to include a variety of markets.  RGM began automated trading of NASDAQ equities in 2001.  Over the next years, the company added NYSE stocks, exchange traded funds (ETFs), futures and currencies to its trading mix. 

In June 2005, the Company moved its headquarters to the new Whole Foods building in downtown Austin to accommodate its growing team.  In October 2005, the Company established a UK affiliate and opened its London office to manage its European trading.

The company presently focuses on high-frequency, high-volume trading strategies, taking short-term positions in thousands of instruments.  Our team continues to grow steadily as we expand our trading operations.
