From 1991 to mid-1993, while working in research and trading under Victor Niederhoffer at Niederhoffer Investments in New York, Toby became convinced of the need to systematize his trading and risk control methods. Toby found this approach to be a better psychological fit for him, and also a cure for the high volatility that had accompanied discretionary trading. It also allowed him to focus more rigorously on research. In January 1992, he began a strict application of systematic, short-term trading in futures markets. Toby Crabel left Niederhoffer Investments in April 1993. At this point, Toby was confident that he had conceived of an approach to trading and risk management on which he could build a world-class CTA. Starting in 1993, Toby invested all available resources in building the infrastructure necessary to implement his systems. During this time, he created unique research and signal generation systems that are still a central part of research and operations today. Since 1993, the Crabel team has expanded from 2 to over 60 people worldwide. Today Toby’s trading advisory business, Crabel Capital Management, LLC, is based in Milwaukee, WI. Through this firm and other Crabel affiliates, Crabel currently manages over $2.5B including notional assets.
