How do I plot a candle graph on top of an area graph when calling the CANDLE function before the AREA function?

I would like to plot a candle graph on top of an area graph. However, I prefer to call the CANDLE function before I call the AREA function. When I do this, the area graph covers the candle graph completely. How do I ensure that the candle graph is seen as well?

The following code demonstrates an example of plotting a candle graph on top of an area graph when calling the CANDLE function before the AREA function:

close all;

%%Plot candle on a2 axes

a2 = axes;

High = [5 7 6 4]';

Low = [2 3 2 1]';

Close = [3 4 3 2]';

Open = [4 3 6 3]';

candle(High, Low, Close, Open);

%%Plot area on a1 axes

a1 = axes;

x = linspace(0, 4, 100);

y = 8*rand(1, 100);

area(x, y);

%%Make sure a2 is on top

set(gcf, 'Children', [a2; a1])

%%Make second axes invisible

set(a2, 'Visible', 'off');

%%Link the axes limits

linkaxes([a1 a2], 'xy');

%%Adjust the limits

ylim([0 10]);
