After carefully reviewing Shin’s publicly available details as an experienced trader, I can share that specific minimum deposit requirements for opening a live trading account with Shin are not clearly outlined in the broker's provided materials. In my experience, Japanese brokers like Shin operate with a strong emphasis on regulatory compliance, especially as Shin is licensed and overseen by Japan's Financial Services Agency. This regulatory status generally offers a baseline level of security for client funds and practices, but it also means that details such as minimum deposits are usually set through direct communication rather than widely advertised online. For me, this lack of transparency poses challenges in fully assessing the accessibility of Shin’s services, especially for traders accustomed to straightforward digital onboarding and clear fee schedules. Additionally, since Shin does not provide an online trading platform and focuses on beginners and local investors, many aspects—including funding steps and required amounts—are likely handled manually or with in-person consultation. This cautious approach might suit some, but for me, it underscores the importance of directly contacting the broker to confirm all terms before committing any capital. Given my conservative stance, I would not proceed without receiving clear, direct confirmation on minimum deposit requirements and all applicable fees.
