I started putting alerts in my automated signals that will give me a Alerts on stop and limit prices to help me trade manually but they don't seem to appear despite enabling them in the strategy properties.
For example this:
Sell("ExTrail-S") next bar at LStop stop;
Alert("SPY trailing stop at " + NumToStr(LStop,2));
will not produce an alert.

Hello Scaban84,
What alert condition check and alert type have you selected? Attach a screenshot of the alerts tab.
If the alert is not put under condition it will appear on each strategy calculation.

Re: Alerts not working in Signal x64 8 Beta 2
How do I send this.
I am not using a study I am using a Signal.
I am using MultiCharts64 Version 8.0 Beta 2 Build 5203
I am simply trying to put an Alert after an order entry to print the prices.

What if I am not in a position but have open orders? Can I perform a check of an open stop or limit order?
