Has anyone adapted this for BTC China?

Also curious if there's a way to plugin cryptsy's feed? They have tons of alt coins, looking for a way to get MT4 charts on these.

I've examined the BTC China's API and at first glance I think it can be done! Cryptsy in other hand doesn't provide API to download history data!

So basically I need a live feed for gox, btc china, bitstamp and btc-e in one mt4 with a lag <5 secs.

If the script you create for BTC China doesn't lag behind BTC China for more then 3-5 secs I will send you a 5$ tip in btc. Not much I know but maybe others interested can pool in too and get this done.

I'm sorry to say this but with this approach that kind of lag can't be achieved! The main reason is because the script can't be connected all the time using tcp socket to receive realtime tick data!

I'm planning to rewrite it in Java as standalone app, but don't know when I have time to do it!
