You can not have multiple entries within an alert. So the way you show it above, will not work. If you were to put everything into a single alert (per what you show), it would look like the following:
OR(ID1.SG50 > 500, ID1.SG50 < -500, ID1.SG8 > 500, ID1.SG9 < -500)

But the above does not make sense for what you are wanting. If you want to know when SG50 and SG8 are both above 500 or if SG50 and SG9 are above 500, then you would do the following:
OR(AND(ID1.SG50 > 500, ID1.SG8 > 500), AND(ID1.SG50 < -500, ID1.SG9 < -500))

But, this would give you the same alert sound for either of the situations.

But then you go on to state that you want different verbiage for SG50, SG8, and SG9. To do this, you would need to create separate alert conditions on different studies. In general this is not a problem, but you may have to add a hidden study to get all 3 options setup. Keep in mind, there is an Alert option on the "Chart Settings", so that would be 1 place, the Numbers Bars Calculated Values would a second, and then a third unknown study (such as Volume) that you can hide (the alert will still work) could be a third.

We are not exactly sure what you are wanting for these 3 conditions though. Use the information we gave you above to determine how to setup what you want.

The instructions for setting up an alert sound are at the following link:
