MT4 - web server Sockets connection

Hi there, As I read your project I find it is interesting. It is not very common to see an app working from Linux and control an MT4 instance, but I've done this before. I have built many application to control MT4 instances from Windows, Linux and even from a Mac. Reading in detail the architecture you need to implement this, first, I don't think you should use Socket Connections not a DLL to communicate to MT4, it is not the best approach for your goal. If you need to deliver Order signals from your website, then use REST to expose some endpoints containing the Order details (signal) and bridge the communication to MT4 through Named-Pipes, which is far better than using a DLL (in C++), you will have many communication problems sing a DLL with Socket Connections, Socket is a state-full connection, which means, it is always alive until the connection is manually closed or dropped-out. REST instead is state-less and easier to code. Once you have the end-points coded to expose the signals, the rest is easy too, just download the signals from the end-point and execute the order in MT4 through Named-Pipes. If you want I can send you a small demo application which can show you how an MT4 instance can be controlled through Named-Pipes, send Orders, close Positions, retrieve account information, available symbols, etc. No compromise. I can have you project ready in 10 days, 8 days to deliver your solution and 2 more just in case you need any change or update. Regards, Joe.

Hi, We have both Zend Certified PHP /MySQL Expert and Windows .NET programmer available to create this integrated solution for you. We will need details of your requirement. For the server side, we can create a WSDL service file in PHP that could be called in by the DLL file of metatrader on the windows. However, we don't have programming experience with meta-trader so as long as you need the DLL file which only needs to communicate with the WSDL file (which inturn interacts with MySQL) and creates independent output to be used in META TRADER or any app, we can do this job totally. Rest we can discuss once we know your exact requirements. Thanks & Regards, Nirmala Om Technologies

Hello! My name is Alex, I'm professional programmer for forex market. I have a lot of experience in such kind of programming. Let me explain how to implement this better. MT4 has a lack of programming abilities to work with MySQL. First of all, direct connect is unsecured - it is easy to sniff login information, because MT4 will connect to MySQL using direct authorisation. The next problem - it will be very resource unrfiendly to analyse the whole database lines/columns. A you know, it is very easy to freeze MT4 platform. And also additional delays are not accepted for trading. In this case the best solution is to create all algos in websercive, and send JSON requests between webservice and MT4 EA. So, for example, EA send account number to webservice, webservice on your website get it, analyse if this account number contains in database and return something like 1/0 to the EA. So EA doesn't contain and send any authorization data and it is very secure. And as well, it doesn't overload MT4 terminal and doesn't create additional delays. From my experience it is the best soultion. If you will have any questions - don't hesitate to contact me. Kind regards, Alex

Hi there, interesting project. I did stuff like this in the past without actually using a dll but using mt4 code to connect to a remote php located in your webserver or to insert/read directly from remote mysql database in the mt4 ea code. i do this all the time for example to send ticks to a database, to send trades to a database, statements, etc. most of the time client is looking to show some mt4 data in a web application. i think i will have no problem on working on this that way, but if you think a dll will be required i can also build the dll as well. if interested please contact me to talk further.
