Back test data - Help

Good morning everyone, I recently wanted to backtest a new ea but when I try to download the data via Tickstory, it won’t let me download it. It comes back as: request timed out or rate limited. I thought it was a problem with TS Program and so I coded one in Python but it came out with the same result. I tried using a VPN and it worked for few seconds, afterwards, same problem… I only have 1 worker for the downloads but still it fails me everytime both on Tickstory and Python… Since I’m getting so much frustrated because I spent the last 24h not sleeping in order to download this mf data, is there a FASTER way to download them? I need the most precise data possible (ticks), since I’m currently working on a multi-currency scalper EA on MT4.

Thanks for your help, last time I did backtest was 2 years ago and I used datas from Dukascopy & Tickstory, I really don’t know why it’s not working now.
