About Exnova and Stockity
Exnova (2021). Exnova launched in 2021 and offers fixed-time (binary) options, digital options and leveraged CFDs on one platform. Its interface looks and works much like the larger established platforms: one chart, an amount, an expiry and up or down, with more advanced tools one click away.
Stockity (2022). Stockity launched in 2022 and offers classic higher/lower fixed-time trades, including very short ones. It is marketed mostly in Southeast Asia, especially Indonesia, and its platform looks and works much like other simple fixed-time brokers.
