Can anyone recommend/supply an indicator that will give an audio and pop-up alert whenever realtime datafeed is interupted due to internet server connection fault? If you can, I would very much appreciate it.

This is build into MT4 it will make a doyng sound and you will notice the connection is broken on the bottom right of your platform.
Could it be Man is trying to be something without knowing they're complete?

you can probably check if IsConnected() is true and if not then fire an alert.

Now, this is interesting, are you saying there's an IsConnected() function in MQL? How odd is that? because in order to trigger the start() function, doesn't a tick have to come in?

not if you are in a loop, but good point.
