Thanks, so AB gives you a lot of choices here. Very nice. One problem though is that Hourly intervals still fall on the half hour, which is very weird. Is there something I'm missing in the settings to change that too?
Oh wait, I just found it: "align minute bars to regular market hours".
This is all pretty cool, except the one problem I see is for plugins that are expecting a certain interpretation of interval and time. I suppose one could require the settings to be set for a given plugin, except that different scripts/plugins may require different settings. That means multiple instances of AB in order to satisfy such a condition. I think ideally these should be settings on a par chart window level, right? Maybe I'll offer that up as a suggestion.

Don't most charting apps use the convention of even hours? So that each bar is on an even hour interval? Isn't that pretty much standard convention or is there an option to change this in AmiBroker?
