Had a similar problem recently. Even the box from where you can put the
symbols  changed to letters " a b c d ....z" (I mean the buy arrows and sell
arrows and other symbols not present).  Even I found that while system
testing the system tester was not reporting some reports (i.e. some of the
Test# were missing totally although there will be no rejection message while
the testing going on). Those same test# will reappear when I was doing the
same testing 2nd time.
 I just deleted the bigger reports (some 20-25) generated from the system
tester. The problem got solved and automatically the arrows came. Try this
and let us know whether this works out. Probably the system tester gives
erratic behaviour after some fixed spaces covere by it's reports ( Imean
there may be some limit on the size of the system tester reports and files).
