Description

It would be nice, if we could use "Alert" in Signals. I think it is not practical to duplicate strategy logics in indicators just for using "Alert", especially Email Alert.
So if there isn't any good reason, why "alert" should only be allowed in indicators, please make it available in signals.

Steps to reproduce this issue

I totally agree, and especially with Emails for Trading Systems on MC running on a VPS, it's mandatory to be confident in the execution and to prevent any issue

I support this too - there should be an easy way to have MultiCharts generate a default email when an order is entered into the market and when an order is determined to have been filled.

Please please please implement this feature. This feature is present in TradeStation, NinjaTrader etc. 
This is an absolutely important feature very useful to keep a tab on the risk, especially for people who have to sometimes go outside or leave their desk. Thank you.
