How to plot/access outside csv file on chart?

I have a csv file with timestamps and prices, that I would like to plot on a chart. I have tried (but found no way) to edit the spreadsheet and plot the times and prices. Similarly, I read through the forums and documentation and was not able to find a way to access outside csv files through a study. If needed, I can convert it to a different format as it originates from a Python pandas data frame (if that helps).

Is there any other way for me to plot this data on a chart, whether as a color bar or as an icon?

If you are wanting to plot this information in the file as bar data in a chart, then you would just need to import the data. Refer to the following:
Exporting and Importing Intraday Data Files: Import and Load

But, if you are wanting to just have these data as markers of some kind in a chart of already existing bars, then there is not a study that does this. You would need to develop this yourself using our ACSIL functionality. Refer to the information starting here:
Advanced Custom Study Interface and Language (ACSIL): Introduction

Or, if you want to pay someone to develop this for you, then refer to the information at the following link:

Hi,

I don't find the way too.

I use File > New/Open Intraday Chart and nothing appears...
Find csv example file attached.
