Japanese derivative markets?

[hissho]

Hi all
just wondering if anyone is trading the Japanese derivative markets? I guess it should provide a lot of money-making opportunities as Japan is the second largest economy in the world...

it's just i haven't heard too many ppl talking about it...maybe because of the language barrier? or maybe it's not as good as our local ASX markets?

cheers

hissho,
Apart from the TSE products, their commodities are very illiquid. The other major issue I have found is that brokerage has been prohibitively high.

One can't argue with the current trend in Red Azuki Beans though.
