About
For Market Professionals By Market Professionals
RGS' story began in 2012, rooted in the bustling trading floors of Chicago. We met a growing demand for support as floor traders transitioned to the screen. Many lacked the tech skills this new environment demanded. Leveraging our network here in Chicago ("We know a guy!"), we began to secure contracts with mid-sized prop trading firms in the mid-2010s.
Fast forward to today, RGS has blossomed into a force in the FinTech landscape. Our clientele now spans individual traders to industry-leading FinTech firms. We differentiate ourselves through a unique combination: deep expertise in market strategies coupled with cutting-edge technology solutions. This allows us to be a one-stop shop for those seeking to conquer the ever-evolving financial markets.
Today RGS empowers financial institutions and market professionals with a comprehensive suite of market services, FinTech solutions, and an exciting new suite of ML/AI tools. Our team develops and implements tailored market strategies to optimize investment portfolios and maximize returns. We also design and deploy robust, scalable trading system infrastructures, including cloud-based solutions.
By leveraging the power of accelerated computing, integrated API, Machine Learning, AI, and cloud technology, we help clients enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and improve security. Additionally, our expert trader training elevates skills and refines trading strategies. To provide a competitive edge, we develop personalized market indicators tailored to specific needs. Whether you're based in Chicago or anywhere in the world, our team is dedicated to helping you achieve your FinTech goals.
Sound premises form the foundation of our quantitative analysis and modeling. These constants guide our approach, leading us to employ supervised, causative modeling in strategey development and machine learning. At the core of every strategy are two fundamental forces: the psychology of the masses and the movements of institutional capital. Success comes from consistently positioning on the right side of both. These principles serve as the backbone of our research and strategy development, ensuring a structured, data-driven edge in the markets.
Our proprietary metrics empower us to precisely quantify and model both market mass psychology and institutional capital. By distilling these forces into measurable constants, we establish the foundation for our quantitative analysis and modeling. These constants drive the development of unique formulas that empower our strategies to anticipate market movements—rather than merely reacting to historical data.
Because our market solutions are entirely objective and rule-based, they can be systematically modeled and tested across a broad range of analytical tools. By leveraging causative quantitative analysis, we focus on defining precise strategy expectations rather than chasing correlations. This approach allows us to identify and rank strategies that consistently achieve superior benchmarks over time—ensuring our focus remains on the most effective, high-performing solutions.
