Helius has been flagged by Autorité des marchés financiers for "Unregistered/Unlicensed entity offering financial products or services". Helius is not registered with the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) and is not authorized to solicit investors in Québec. This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm. Website domain: heliustrx.com.
Do not be fooled by the professional-looking website. Behind the scenes, Helius is disorganized and incompetent. I found them after attending a webinar they hosted and I can only assume the positive reviews are either outdated or paid for because my experience was terrible.
Pros: Fast deposits|Competitive fees
Cons: No dark mode on mobile
Tried to withdraw my funds from Helius and was told I needed to pay a "withdrawal tax" of 20%. This is a red flag. No legitimate broker charges withdrawal taxes. When I refused, they became aggressive and eventually stopped all communication. My entire investment is gone.
Pros: Initially responsive customer service
Cons: Blocked my account|No legitimate license|Fake returns
I requested my data from Helius under GDPR. They sent a partial export that was missing months of transactions. When I asked for the rest they said it was a technical issue. Still waiting. They do not take data rights seriously.
Pros: Instant funding|Stable platform
Cons: Minimum deposit could be lower|Limited demo account features
