SetChartOptions function should be used carefully As written here: www.amibroker.com/f?setchartoptions
use should use Flags = 0, if you use any other value of Flags parameter then you won't be able to modify the settings provided by setchartoptions because they will get overwritten with each chart refresh. So I guess you are using SetChartOptions with Flags not equal to zero and thats causes your problems.

I can't explain everything yet but I think the majority of my problems have to do with SetChartOptions. It explains why some things get reset to defaults, why dates appear sometimes and not others, etc. Bottom line: It's my problem, not an AB problem, and nothing for anyone else shoud waste any time on.
