Post From: Color background/bar or even trading system based on alert are not working

I was trying to build a trading system, and couldn't figure out why my alert conditions weren't working.
So I simplified and tried to just see them visually, with Color Background Based on Alert Condition.

My formula was

=H<ID6.SG3

Where the high of a 4 range bar, must be lower than the study (BBand lower from 1 minute bar)

Nothing was showing up. So I figured maybe it was because this was a reference study from a 1 min chart, on a 4 range bar chart, and maybe refercning studies was the cause of the condition not painting the background.

So I simplified even further.

I made it super simple. Just simply tested for High being greater than L

=H>L

This should theoretically paint the background completely since the High will always be greater than the low.
But nothing happened.

What am I doing wrong?? How do I use alert conditions properly, because they dont seem to function for me at all.
I feel kind of stupid, and its probably something super simple Im missing.

Thanks
