doing it everyday
It might not be the answer you are looking for...but I run 1 computer with my metatrader strategy and indicators and the other with my non mt4 broker where I place trades manually
Working over here
It is possible to add a file output from your indicator(s) in MT4.
Alternatively (if you are using pre compiled indicators) you can read the object(s) values by writing your own object watcher.
I use the CSV file format and have a small external program watching the file date stamp.
When there is a change (data has been added from MT4) I simply read the file and pass the info on to the rest of my system - running on different machines.
In this way, I also have a (history) buffer in the text file, making it much easier to, in my own time, add the information to my database.
In this way, I also trade live accounts via MT4, the visual trading API and my own software connecting to Oanda.
Hope this may be of some help.

Anyone here knows how to use MT4 platform in Non-MT4 Brokers? Any input would be appreciated...
Thanks,
