   Our verdict on Exnova

   Exnova offers a modern platform with low entry costs and a wide asset list. The lack of a government licence, its short history and withdrawal complaints keep it below the established names. If you try it, start small and test a withdrawal early.

   Skip it if: You need a licensed broker or an external complaint route

   Our verdict on Expert Option

   Expert Option is the most beginner-friendly interface of the three and has a usable app. Its lack of a government licence and a narrower asset list place it third. A reasonable alternative if the other two are unavailable to you.

   Skip it if: You want a wide asset list or longer-term analysis
