This is true for the first execution of start()... then you need 1 tick only and after that you have infinite loop.. like this
while(true)
{
// check network connection - if dropped reconnect
Sleep(1000);
}
PS I believe you might be able to include the script code inside the EA so that you don't have to call external script

Thing is, any piece of software needs a stimulus before it will do anything. A word processor only creates a new document when the user tells it to, for example.
mql4 EA's require a 'tick' from the broker to be kicked into life. If the platform is disconnected from the broker, the EA doesn't get a tick and so does not leap in to life.

For the benefit of any users of this EA in the UK who might be struggling to get to grips with the time settings
In line with the link to Forex Market Hours posted by Scooby a few pages ago:
Tokyo opens at 8am Tokyo time.
Tokyo Closes at 4pm Tokyo time.
Tokyo is currently 9 hours ahead of UK DST so if it is 12 midday in the UK it is 9pm in Tokyo.
Tokyo's timezone does not use DST (Daylight Saving Time) so when the UK's clocks go forward in the spring, Tokyo will be 8 hours ahead instead of 9 hours. So you will need to adjust (advance) your EA Sell & Buy times by 1 hour. (Hopefully we will all be on the way to being Millionaires by then
)
So, currently Tokyo opens at 11pm UK DST. The Sell & Buy start times must be set 2 hours before market open, so the Sell hour start time is 9pm UK DST.
Do the same for the Buy hour start time/Tokyo market close (i.e. 4pm Tokyo time, less 9 hours = 7am UK DST, less another 2 hours = 5am UK DST)
If you are using a VPS and your VPS clock for example (like mine) uses EST (Eastern Standard Time) this is currently 5 hours behind UK DST, so just deduct 5 hours from 9pm and you arrive at 4pm as a Sell hour start time. Do the same for the Buy hour start time. (i.e. 5am less 5 hours = 12am).
Can't explain it any simpler than that.
