Tradingview pine script accessing external data

Question

I would like create an indicator that would plot some data points from external source on the chart. For example, I have a file with dates and specific values and would like to mark these values on the chart.

Is there a way to achieve that in Pine script?

Answer 1

I believe this is now doable with the the request.seed function
