My trading systems are programmed as MetaTrader4 Expert Advisors(EA). Is there a way to interface & execute the same trade orders from a MT4 platform to my IB acct?

Thank You for the link. MT4 EAs can run 24/5 on Virtual Private Servers but IB logs everyone out once a day. How would the connectivity for orders from MT4 EA be affected and reconnected when IB restarts (How can IB restart automatically)?

There are multiple tools for auto-starting IB TWS and maintaining it 24/5 without restarting. My favorite is IBController. You can find latest version if you register in yahoo group TWSAPI. There is a file list section with many similar programs.
