To do this,
1 click on the Alert Tab in the Terminal window.
2 Right click in the window white space
3 select Create
4 Follow the instructions to set up the alert
5 Make sure your email is enabled in the Tools tab (at the top of the
screen) and then the Options tab
and then the E-Mail Tab.

You can have either a sound alert or a visual alert or a Email alert, or any combination of them...

I am not sure I understand what you mean. Do you mean how do you place a stoploss? Or, do you mean how do you get alerted when a stoploss is hit?

Here are 2 scenarios that I can give you as examples

Scenario 1

Long Euro @1.3850, Stop Loss 1.3800

Setup the alarm with Bid < 1.3800 OR Bid <1.3801

Scenario 2

Short Euro @1.3800, Stop Loss 1.3850

Setup the alarm with Ask > 1.3850 OR Ask >1.3849

For more details follow Scott's post

I do you mean how do you get alerted when a stoploss is hit?
yes, but not after the price hit the stoploss, when it near it 5-10 pips
