I can tell you what you cannot do with candle coloring in Amibroker
(yes, I have reported this a LOT to support already):
You can have different candle colors but you can NOT have black wicks
with a black outline of your candle color body. I've said this
countless times. Charts look a lot better when you can have a black
outline of your colored candle bodies. No combination of preferences
will make this happen.
