 The sample plot configuration below specifies fixed colors for the indicators. Otherwise, consecutive plots may produce different color schemes each time, making comparisons difficult.
 It also allows multiple subplots to display both MACD and RSI at the same time.
 
 Plot type can be configured using `type` key. Possible types are:
