Sierra's alert manager is not populating with data. Am using Windows 8.1.

What type of an alert have you configured which you are expecting to see in Window >> Show/Hide Alert Manager >> Alerts Log?

Is is a Simple Alert on a study?

This means the simple alert is not evaluating to true.

Change the formula to TRUE. This will always evaluate to true and at least give you a signal right away so you can test the Alerts Log.

Just looking at the formula itself we see no problem with it. We recommend setting up a simple formula on a Moving Average study comparing the moving average to the closing price of a bar and see how that works.

You may also need to set the Value Format properly:
