AF-scalper is a fully automated scalper EA which trades based on breakouts of the ZigZag indicator levels. The EA is fully configured for trading EURUSD. It works on 30 minute timeframe (has not been tested on other timeframes). Although it is possible to optimize it for another time interval. I recommend that you use an ECN account with low spread and fast execution, and also use a VPS server with minimal delay.

• Do not use averaging, grid, martingale
• Uses the ZigZag indicator built into the metaTrader 4 platform
• Uses tight stop loss.
• The EA trades using pending orders.

Recommendations

• Use only ECN accounts with small spread
• Tested on the EURUSD pair, although it did not undergo optimization on other pairs
• The optimal timeframe is 30 minutes.
