"sockets from MQL?" from terminal to terminal I assume. But please tell me you're not talking about named pipes. Are you?
DislikedI'll try and dig some code out to use sockets from MQL if you want - there are particular threading concerns within MT4 - especially if you want to emit a feed AND respond to order processing requests in a timely manner. I don't have any reusable code OUTSIDE of Mt4 - my stuff is all Java and part of a different system.
Of course this might sound like teaching a grandmother to suck eggs ..Ignored
