While Seven Investors is a relatively small broker, it matches together MetaTrader firms. As opposed to the rest of the world, MetaTrader only has a small hold on the Japanese market. Nissan Century currently provides traders FX trading through the MT5 platform, while Seven Investors offers MT4 and FXCM’s Trading Station II. Therefore, the deal is worth watching on two angles.

Two, if the firms achieve success with EAs and the MetaTrader platform it could lead to more Japanese brokers following suit to offer the product.
