Candlestick Charts with GLMakie

Hi I’m thinking of moving away from PlotlyJS.jl and trying GLMakie.jl. My end goal is to create a CandleStick chart. First a static example and then have the bars update in realtime. However I’ve noticed that Makie.jl does not have a CandleStick chart like Plotly does. So my question is what would be a good approach to achieve this? A range slider for the dates would be nice too if possible.

The closest thing I found online here uses renctangles and lines to imitate a candlestick chart. The result is so so as you zoom in and out.

Is there a better approach to create candlestick charts with GLMakie?

yes that’s the link I posted - seems to combine a rectangle and line to draw a candle. I was wondering if there’s other, perhaps better approaches available. Thx
