%
% To use colors without a date, put '0' as date
%     i.e. cndlV2(OHLC,0,'b','r','k');
%
% required inputs: column vectors of O(pen), H(igh), L(ow)
% and C(lose) prices of commodity. 
% Alternative: OHLC matrix of size [rowsx4] 
%
% optional inputs [default]: 
% - date: serial date number (make with 'datenum') [no dates, index#]
% - colorUp: Color for up candle                   ['w']
% - colorDown: Color for down candle               ['k']
% - colorLine: Color for lines                     ['k']
%
% Note: identical inputs as required for barChartPlot except for colors
