TD Ameritrade Holding Corp. could be sliding into your DMs.
The brokerage is allowing customers to buy and sell stocks and exchange-traded funds using direct messages on Twitter Inc.’s platform, months after creating a similar feature for Facebook Inc.’s Messenger services, according to a company statement Thursday.
