How Upload QUOTE data to my own database website

[udin]

I would like to build website, that the QUOTE running on the screen like this: http://www.interpanpasifikfutures.com/test01.php
I'm trying download MT4 to see what happen.
The Question are: Where is URL/server address for that QUOTE in order I can take/upload the QUOTE data to my own MySQL Database?
Thx.

You need to start by checking the legality of what you plan to do. The fact that you are running a piece of software (MT4) which receives price data does not automatically give you the right to republish that price data on a website. For comparison, what you are intending would almost always be a breach of copyright with futures or equity data. In other words, start by contacting your broker to get their permission.

Doesn't matter. The standard terms and conditions for the supply of futures and equity data within a piece of trading software prevent re-use of the data in any other medium. Doesn't matter whether the website is for personal or public use. Same may or may not be true of forex data.

You may not like it, but the terms and conditions applying to financial data are usually broadly comparable to music, software etc: having use of the data in one form does not give you unrestricted rights to re-use the data in any way you want.

let's say an example, i'm at work now & the port fort MT4 are blocked, then i'm sending the quotes thru http then it's illegal ?

It depends on the terms and conditions of whoever is providing the data. The reality, of course, is that they are unlikely to pursue an individual or have the means to do so. They just want to give themselves the option of preventing (a) people making use of their copyrighted material for commercial gain, and also in some cases (b) people hacking together a free alternative to a service which the data supplier wants to charge extra for.

Standard terms and conditions typically mention free re-use of the data provided that it is for "personal non-commercial use" and also that it is "not for publication". The latter is typically construed to mean any website, partly because (a) any website is potentially public unless password-protected, and (b) it otherwise creates a loophole where people claim that they had absolutely no idea that other people were visiting a website which was supposed to be for their personal use.
