Euronis Scalper is a fully automated robot for the Forex market that was published on the mql5 website on August 7, 2021. It has 10 activations so far. The newest version of the robot is 1.231. Unlike other EAs, this product hasn’t received much hype from the vendor.
Euronis Scalper is the creation of an individual called Denis Sotnikov from Russia. He has also developed other EAs including Euronis for the MT4 platform, Oracle, and Sync Charts (for both the MT4 and MT5 terminals).
A closer look at the profile on mql5 shows that this developer works under a company known as Forex Over which has been in existence since 2009. Unfortunately, his credentials and more background info about the company are missing.

The system applies the scalping strategy. This means that the system tries to make profits from small movements in price. It buys and sells the currency pairs, only holding the position for a short period, i.e., a few seconds or minutes. The main disadvantage of this approach is that it produces small profits on every trade, which makes it hard to meet the financial goals of the trader.

The EA has been making daily and monthly profits at rates of 0.45% and 15.80% respectively. The drawdown of 3.58% is still small and doesn’t present threats to the capital.
So far, a total of 76 trades have been executed. The winning rates for long trading positions (65%) are quite poor. Though higher, the win rates for short positions (80%) do not inspire any hope of growing the account significantly. The profit factor is 4.15.
The pips made are 280. The average win is 5.86 pips when the average loss is -2.02 pips. However, data on lots traded is concealed. Perhaps the lot sizes used are large and the owner does not want us to know that his system subjects the trader’s investment to high risks.
Thursday is the most traded day with 18 deals completed.
The account cannot be wiped out easily.
The profit made in August is 14.29%.
The profits made were small. The scalping strategy is evident as the EA traded on short time frames of anywhere between 4 minutes and 5 hours.

Is Euronis Scalper a viable option?
Advantages
- Live trading results are available
- Backtest results are provided
Disadvantages
- Short trading history
- Lack of vendor transparency
- Unprofitable strategy
- Poor customer feedback
Summary
The EA has made profits and managed to maintain low drawdown levels for the short time it has been on the market. However, we need more time to ascertain if it can sustain this trend. We know that the scalping method generates small amounts of profits per trade and one huge trading loss can hence obliterate any gains from several winning trades. So, do not rush to invest in this product because you may end up regretting it later.
