Yes, Okasan Securities charges commissions, but the rates depend on the contract size. For contracts under 1 million yen, the commission is 1.265% for branch accounts and 0.6325% for Omni Net accounts. The commission reduces as the contract price increases, making it more affordable for traders dealing with larger amounts. For example, contracts valued over 3 million yen but under 5 million yen incur a fee of 0.825%, plus a flat fee of 6,600 yen for branch accounts. The fee decreases progressively for contracts over 5 million yen, with the lowest rate at 0.110% plus a fixed fee of 128,700 yen for transactions exceeding 50 million yen. This tiered structure means that traders who deal with large amounts are rewarded with lower fees. The broker ensures that fees are clear and tax-inclusive, which eliminates any ambiguity for clients. However, the lack of detailed information regarding commissions for other asset classes like forex and commodities may be a drawback for traders interested in those markets.
