Taiwanese investors will benefit from Interactive Brokers’ powerful trading platforms and advanced technology and tools. Interactive Brokers offers clients the ability to trade fractional shares of eligible US and European stocks as well as ETFs and can accommodate over 100 order types, including algorithmic trading, which is currently unavailable through other brokers in Taiwan.
