Before you buy a night scalper please be aware of the risks involved:
- Past performance is no guarantee of future profitability (the EA could also make losses).
- The backtests shown (e.g. in screenshots) are highly optimized to find the best parameters but therefore do not give a realistic prediction of future profitability.
- Any mean reversion can get caught on the wrong side of a fast movements due to unexpected news or flash crashes. This strategy will always use a stop loss, but still execution of the SL depends on your broker.
- Night scalpers are dependent on good brokerage conditions, like low spread and slippage, which might be worse on high lot sizes.
This is a multi symbol mean reversion system that trades during the second half of the NY session and start of Asian session. You only need one chart opened to trade all symbols.
It does not use martingale or grid and uses fixed stop losses for every position.

- Additional information and backtests
The default settings are stored within the EA. Please read the blog post for instructions on how to set up the EA.
- Best used with a broker that has low spreads during the night. Many brokers have extreme spreads around swap time. Contact me if you want to analyze the spread at night.
- To use the calendar news filter, please allow requests to:
http://fxdata.cc
http://backup.fxdata.cc
http://breaking.fxdata.cc (only needed if you use the breaking news filter)
(Tools -> Options -> Expert Advisors -> Allow WebRequests for listed URL) - Even with news filter, you should look for major events like elections and disable the EA during those nights.
Parameters
The EA saves historic data internally, so it is best to run it continuously on a VPS.
