As an independent trader with years of personal experience scrutinizing brokers, I approached YAMAGATA’s offering with a conservative mindset, focusing on the costs that matter most to someone seeking to trade indices like the US100. After carefully examining YAMAGATA’s publicly available information, I noticed a salient issue: this broker actually does not offer indices—including the US100—among its tradable instruments. YAMAGATA’s product range consists of domestic and foreign stocks, ETFs, REITs, bonds, futures (not index-based), options, and investment trusts, but does not extend to indices or similar CFD offerings. In my hands-on research, I look for underlying reasons behind such limitations. Here, the brokerage is grounded in traditional Japanese securities regulation, supervised by the FSA, and has a long-established presence. This regulatory background generally limits firms to classic assets, enhancing reliability but excluding more speculative products such as index CFDs. For someone like me who often weighs risk carefully, this clear product categorization and regulatory structure provide a certain comfort—but also restrict market opportunities, especially for those interested in indices like the US100. Given all this, if you’re specifically looking to trade indices through YAMAGATA, you won’t find the US100 or related index products available—so assessing trading costs for such products with this broker isn’t feasible. I’d advise you to thoroughly review your trading goals; if index exposure is critical for you, consider a more specialized broker offering those instruments under transparent, regulated conditions.
