FX Scalper X is a new Forex expert advisor that introduces itself as an effective trading tool able to turn $100 into $150 000 for 11 months of trading. Its developers claim that this robot was designed to ‘grow your forex account over time’. This EA is said to be an easy-to-use MT4 tool for both experienced traders and novices.
In this FX Scalper X review, we are going to analyze this EA, its trading results, vendor transparency, and software reliability to decide whether this robot is worth to be installed onto traders’ accounts.
Product Offering
The FX Scalper X presentation looks unprofessional. It is poorly organized and involves very little to no information about the product, its developers, or what trading strategy the system uses to generate profits. From the very first sentence, the dev claims that there is ‘NO MARTINGALE, NO HEDGING, NO GRID TRADING’ strategies behind the FX Scalper X robot.
From the very brief website presentation, we could gather the next information about the robot:
- It’s a 100% automated trading tool
- It runs on MT4 platform
- It trades on M1 timeframe
- It could generate $150K from the deposited $100 in 2020
- The dev claims their product can ‘DOUBLE, TRIPLE, QUADRUPLE YOUR TRADING ACCOUNT’
- The minimum required deposit to start trading with this robot is $100
- It’s a good choice not only for experienced traders but for beginners too
- The robot is delivered within 24 hours after purchase
- It’s easy to install EA
- The vendor provides Instagram and Telegram contacts to get in touch with the FX Scalper X team
FX Scalper X EA is available to buy on the website of the developer. There are 4 licenses available for traders. These packages include 3 EAs for the price of 1 (FX Scalper X, FX Scalper XX, and FX Scalper XXX). Oddly, but we know nothing about the rest 2 EAs – FX Scalper XX and FX Scalper XXX. How do they differ? What’s included? What currency pairs do they support? No answers.
So, the vendors offer a one-lifetime license and 3 subscription packs. The lifetime license costs $277. The three-month pack is available to buy for $117, a 6-month license for $157 and the 1-year license is sold for $197. Unfortunately, we couldn’t find any intel about what is included in these packages. There is no information provided on the website of the developer. Moreover, a money-back guarantee is not mentioned. The dev wants only to sell out his EAs and he does not carry about traders’ needs or expectations. His goal is to earn money by selling out the digital copies of the FX Scalper X robot. His approach looks suspicious. Most of the scammers act the same way.
Trading Strategy
There is no word mentioned about the trading approach behind his expert advisor. The dev only said that his or her EA does not use any risky trading strategies like Martingale, Grid, or Hedging. Lack of transparency and information raises a red flag for this EA. From the backtest reports we’ve found out that the robot runs on the M1 timeframe and trades 4 currency pairs: EUR/USD, EUR/JPY, GBP/USD, GBP/JPY. Recommended deposit is $100.

Customer Reviews
There are no customer reviews about the FX Scalper X robot on the web. Probably, it is because the EA is too young or traders do not trust its developer and consider the robot is a total scam.
