100 Euro Scalper – Intraday Momentum Portfolio for Small Accounts
100 Euro Scalper is a fully automated intraday Expert Advisor that trades a portfolio of time-window strategies ("legs") on JP225, BTCUSD, USTEC and XAUUSD – all from one single chart. It was built to start with a small account from 100 EUR (leverage 1:500) and to add more legs automatically as the account grows.
PROPERTIES
- Intraday only: all positions are closed within the day, no overnight or weekend risk.
- Portfolio of up to 8 legs on four markets; every leg is spread over several slightly shifted entries and exits, which smooths the result.
- Risk-based position size per leg, adapted to the current volatility of each market.
- Small-account mode: with 100 EUR only the two core legs trade; the other legs join automatically once the account is large enough.
- Every leg has an emergency stop from the moment it opens, plus its own take profit and trailing exit.
- Optional daily loss limit for the whole account and a margin guard against overloading the account.
STRENGTHS AND LIMITS
+ Starts with a very small account and grows into the full portfolio by itself.
+ Spread across index, crypto and gold, no positions overnight.
– Built for a specific broker server time; with a different server time the settings need a small adjustment.
FEATURES
- One chart trades all legs and symbols (any chart, any timeframe)
- Trade direction: long and short / long only / short only
- Info panel with selectable corner: shows per leg whether it trades or waits for a larger account
- Optional CSV export of all closed deals

MULTI-ASSET EA – NOTE ON BACKTESTING
The 100 Euro Scalper is a multi-asset EA: from one chart it trades JP225, BTCUSD, USTEC and XAUUSD at the same time. Backtesting in the MT5 Strategy Tester is possible, but a little more demanding than with a single-symbol EA: the tester has to load the history of all four symbols, which takes time and disk space (test one year per run, model "Every tick" or "Every tick based on real ticks"). Tester history, spreads and session times differ between brokers, so backtest results can deviate noticeably from live trading and from the figures above – please treat them as a guide only.

IMPORTANT RISK NOTICE
With 100 EUR the two core legs each risk about 4–6 % of the account per day. Drawdowns of 30–50 % are possible, especially at the start, and the result depends strongly on the first weeks. A start from 300–500 EUR is noticeably calmer. Past results, backtests included, are no guarantee of future results. Only trade money you can afford to lose and test the EA on a demo account first.
