Hello,
I would like to share with you some shortcuts which I find really useful. Feel free, to add next ones.
1) F3 - the easiest and quickest way to find (and display on a chart) any symbol from the database (searching by Ticker or by Name).
2) Ctrl + Shift + Zoom in - Zoom range.
In this case, marking a range is required:
F12 (or left mouse button double click) - marks the beginning of selection range
Shift + F12 (or left mouse button double click) - marks the end of selection range
Ctrl + F12 ( or left mouse button double click in the right margin area) - hides selection range
3) Alt + Right Arrow, Alt + Left Arrow - allow to quickly switch to next/previous symbol(s) (alphabetically)
Shift + Alt + Right Arrow, Shift + Alt + Left Arrow - switches to next/previous symbol(s) (within currently selected category/watchlist)
Ctrl + Alt + Right Arrow, Ctrl + Alt + Left Arrow - switches to next/previous selected symbol(s)
4) Shrinking, expanding and moving Y-axis scale (Quote from Amibroker charting guide):
To move Y-axis scale hover the mouse to Y-axis area (marked with blue color in the picture above) and you will see that cursor changes to up/down arrow. Now you click and drag up/down Y axis and release button when the axis is in the correct position.
To shrink/expand Y-axis scale: press down SHIFT key and click in the Y-axis area, now shrink/expand Y axis scale by moving your mouse up and down. Release the button to finish.
To reset Y-axis scale and position simply double click in the Y-axis area.

5) Pressing END key on the keyboard will add 10 extra bars with each keystroke. Pressing HOME will reset the blank bars area back to default value from Preferences. Number of bank bars can also be controlled using SetChartOptions() function from the code.

All of those shortcuts and their key-assignments can be changed via Tools/Customize/Keyboard. You can also add many, many other shortcuts this way ...
