All,
I've been busy developing other EAs but I haven't forgotten Piplite. In fact, Piplite is one of my 3 EAs on my live account that just sits there and continues to make money.
I have made several modifications to ensure Piplite continues to trade across multiple broker platforms. I have removed the set file from the first post and encorporated the information into this new version of Piplite v3.0. You can find the new version
here.
I decided to go with a jump from v2.1 to v3.0 due to all the changes implimented. You will find a list of the complete changes on the first post. I have attached here three backtests for reference to show that Piplite trades on 4 decimal, 5 decimal and micro (penny a pip) platforms and accounts.
To answer some questions, Piplite has a time filter on it to trade 12 hours starting at 21 GMT and ending at 9 GMT. This time frame has helped Piplite to stop huge trend movements and proves to be the best overall. Just set the new GMT Offset for your broker and you're set. Piplite will continue to monitor all open trades all the time to ensure that you can close your "basket" of outstanding trades in profit. The time throttle is there mostly to stop too many trades from being opened.
Piplite will set the right aRSI time indicator period during it's calculation but you must place it on the right timeframe! Piplite is now only recommended to trade the GBPUSD on the 30 minute chart as all other pairs have proven unsatisfactory during this current market condition.
Piplite plays well with other EAs as generates a magic number based on the pair you are trading. Piplite will also autodetect your broker decimal (4 or 5). You will need a broker that trades down to the micro lot (.01) as any other lot size higher will kill your account! Penny a pip account types will need to set the new IBFX micro value to true.
Remember, there is no set file now. Piplite is good to go, right out of the box for GBPUSD on a 30 minute chart. You just need to set your specific account details and your risk tolerance parameters. Piplite is an equity trader so no TP is sent to the broker and if you have POSL turned off, no SL is sent to the broker either making Piplite inherently stealthy. If you experience spotty internet connections, I recommend turning POSL on to have a stop loss based on the Equity Protection Percentage to the broker. As always, have fun! I've made some good money with Piplite with the settings that are in it right now! Enjoy!
Happy Trading
