Bear color will be applied when the current closing value is greater than the previous closing value.
Bull color will be applied when the current closing value is less than the previous closing value.

By default, bullFillColor is set as red and bearFillColor is set as green.

Solid Candles

enableSolidCandles is used to enable/disable the solid
