Evening Scalper Pro Review 2026: Same Developer as Waka Waka—Better Results?

Evening Scalper Pro comes from Valeriia Mishchenko, one of MQL5’s most respected developers. Her portfolio includes Waka Waka (3,400%+ gains), Night Hunter Pro, Golden Pickaxe, and Perceptrader AI. With that pedigree, expectations run high.

But Evening Scalper Pro occupies an interesting niche: it trades cross pairs during the American evening session, avoiding the crowded major-pair night scalping space. The question is whether this differentiation translates to better risk-adjusted returns—or just different risks.

This review examines verified performance data, recent user feedback, and whether Evening Scalper Pro deserves a spot in your EA portfolio for 2025.

How Evening Scalper Pro Works

The Evening Session Edge

Evening Scalper Pro exploits a specific market window: the late American session (19:00-23:00 broker time) when European markets have closed and Asian markets haven’t fully opened. During this transition, cross pairs like EURNZD and EURAUD often range in predictable channels.

The EA identifies overextended price movements and trades mean-reversion—betting that price will return toward average levels. Take profits are typically small (5-15 pips), capitalizing on these quiet-hour corrections.

Why Cross Pairs?

Most night/evening scalpers crowd into EURUSD and GBPUSD. Evening Scalper Pro deliberately avoids these, trading instead:

• EURNZD, EURAUD: Euro crosses with antipodean currencies
• AUDNZD: Trans-Tasman pair with tight correlation
• NZDCAD, AUDCAD: Commodity currency crosses
• EURGBP: European cross with lower volatility
• GBPAUD, GBPCAD: Sterling crosses

The theory: less competition means the edge persists longer. Major pairs have been arbitraged by hundreds of night scalpers; cross pairs see less algorithmic activity.

Risk Management Features

• No martingale: Lot sizes don’t increase after losses
• No grid: Doesn’t add positions during drawdowns
• Stop losses on every trade: Risk is defined upfront
• News filter: Pauses before high-impact events
• Stock market crash filter: Stops trading during extreme volatility
• Swap filter: Avoids positions with unfavorable overnight costs
• Auto GMT detection: Adapts to broker timezone

Verified Performance Analysis

Myfxbook Track Record

The official Myfxbook account (IC Markets, real money) shows:

• Total gain: +54.76% since May 2021
• Maximum drawdown: 41.05%
• Profit factor: ~1.0
• Win rate: 60-64%
• Average win: 10.6 pips
• Average loss: -16.1 pips
• Monthly return: ~0.92%

The Concerning Numbers

Let’s be direct: these metrics raise questions.

A 41% drawdown is substantial for a non-martingale system. The profit factor near 1.0 means the EA is essentially breaking even on a risk-adjusted basis. Losing trades average 50% larger than winners, requiring a high win rate just to stay profitable.

Compare this to Waka Waka’s 3,400%+ gains or Night Hunter Pro’s 215% (though NHP also has concerning recent performance). Evening Scalper Pro’s returns are notably modest.

The 2024-2025 Picture

MQL5 reviews from 2024-2025 are polarized:

“The EA no longer functions… no support or mise à jour” — May 2024 reviewer

“I claimed bankruptcy after using multiple EAs from this developer” — May 2024 (developer responded emphasizing proper risk management)

However, the EA did receive a 2025 update with re-optimized internal parameters after “over a year of deep research, testing, and optimization.” March 2024 also saw the EA reach new all-time highs on some accounts.

Our Assessment

Evening Scalper Pro appears to be a legitimate but modest performer. The verified track record proves it’s not a scam, but returns don’t match the developer’s other products. The cross-pair approach may offer diversification value when combined with major-pair EAs, but standalone performance is underwhelming for the price.

Evening Scalper Pro vs. Night Hunter Pro

Feature	Evening Scalper Pro	Night Hunter Pro
Session	American evening (19:00-23:00)	Asian night (21:00-01:00)
Pairs	8 cross pairs	12 major pairs
Verified Gain	+54% (3+ years)	+215% (4+ years)
Drawdown	~41%	~30%
Price	$1,960	$2,340
Recent Updates	2025 optimization	None in 1+ year

Night Hunter Pro has better historical returns but concerning lack of updates. Evening Scalper Pro has weaker returns but recent optimization. Neither is a clear winner in 2025.

Who Is Valeriia Mishchenko?

The developer’s track record provides context for expectations:

• 10+ years algorithmic trading experience
• Average rating of 4.3/5.0 from 269+ MQL5 reviews
• Multiple EAs: Waka Waka, Night Hunter Pro, Golden Pickaxe, Perceptrader AI
• Combined portfolio shows 6,300%+ gains over 62+ consecutive profitable months

This isn’t a fly-by-night developer. But even established developers produce EAs that underperform—and Evening Scalper Pro’s numbers suggest it’s the weaker sibling in the portfolio.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• No dangerous strategies: No martingale or grid means predictable risk
• Cross-pair diversification: Trades pairs most EAs ignore
• Reputable developer: Valeriia Mishchenko has strong overall track record
• Recent 2025 update: Re-optimized parameters show active development
• Comprehensive filtering: News, crash, swap filters reduce unexpected losses
• One-chart setup: Trades all pairs from single chart
• Trial and refund: 14-day trial + 30-day money-back

Cons

• Modest returns: +54% over 3+ years is underwhelming
• High drawdown: 41% is substantial for non-martingale system
• Profit factor ~1.0: Essentially break-even on risk-adjusted basis
• $1,960 is expensive: Hard to justify for these returns
• Cross pairs: Lower liquidity means wider spreads at some brokers
• Broker sensitive: Scalping cross pairs requires good execution
• Mixed reviews: 2024 complaints about performance and support

VPS Requirements

Scalping strategies demand consistent, low-latency execution:

• Recommended latency: Under 10ms to broker servers
• Broker consideration: Cross pairs may route differently than majors—test execution quality
• Uptime: Must run during evening session consistently

Cross pairs often have wider spreads during off-hours. A forex VPS with low latency to your broker helps ensure you’re getting filled at expected prices. Our NY4 VPS provides sub-1ms latency to IC Markets and other brokers commonly used with this EA.

Should You Buy Evening Scalper Pro in 2025?

Consider Evening Scalper Pro If:

• You want exposure to cross pairs alongside major-pair EAs
• You trust Valeriia Mishchenko’s development approach
• You have realistic expectations (~1% monthly, not 10%)
• You can test thoroughly during the trial period
• Your broker offers competitive spreads on cross pairs

Consider Alternatives If:

• You expect returns matching Waka Waka or the developer’s marketing
• 41% drawdown exceeds your risk tolerance
• $1,960 is a significant investment for you
• You want stronger standalone performance

Alternatives to Consider

• Night Hunter Pro ($2,340): Better historical returns, trades majors, but stale (no updates in 1+ year)
• Waka Waka ($2,400): Same developer, grid-based, much higher returns but martingale risk
• Forex Fury ($249): Much cheaper, trades calm sessions, consistent if modest returns

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Evening Scalper Pro profitable in 2025?

Marginally. The verified Myfxbook shows +54% over 3+ years with 41% drawdown. Profit factor near 1.0 indicates break-even risk-adjusted performance. The 2025 update may improve results, but historical data suggests modest expectations.

What’s the difference between Evening Scalper Pro and Night Hunter Pro?

Different sessions and pairs. Night Hunter Pro trades majors during Asian session; Evening Scalper Pro trades crosses during American evening. NHP has better historical returns but no recent updates. ESP has weaker returns but active development.

What currency pairs does Evening Scalper Pro trade?

Eight cross pairs: EURNZD, EURAUD, AUDNZD, NZDCAD, AUDCAD, EURGBP, GBPAUD, GBPCAD. One-chart setup trades all pairs from a single chart.

Does Evening Scalper Pro use martingale?

No. It uses market orders with stop losses on every trade. No lot size increases after losses, no position averaging. This limits both risk and recovery potential.

What VPS latency does it need?

Sub-10ms recommended. Cross pairs may have different execution characteristics than majors at your broker—test on demo first.

Final Verdict

Evening Scalper Pro is a legitimate EA from a reputable developer, but performance doesn’t match the price tag or the developer’s other products. The 54% gain over 3+ years, 41% drawdown, and break-even profit factor suggest this is the weaker offering in Valeriia Mishchenko’s portfolio.

The cross-pair focus provides diversification value if you’re already running major-pair EAs. As a standalone system, the risk-reward proposition is questionable at $1,960.

Our recommendation: use the 14-day trial aggressively and compare results to both official Myfxbook and your actual broker conditions. Cross pairs can behave very differently across brokers. If performance matches expectations and fits your portfolio, it may add value. If you’re looking for a single EA to run, better options exist at lower prices.

Whatever you decide, run it on a reliable VPS—scalping strategies fail when execution lags.
