Broker that provides long historical data - 10/30/15 15:07

Hi

I am trying to use some assets of the AssetsCur.dta file but I cant download the data of them by using the download script. I tried with fxcm and icmarkets but I get the error 053 and 056
Someone knows about a broker which provide historical data for many assets?

What prices you are searching for? Did you download "M1 Forex-28 History 2009..2015" from the Zorro Download page already?

I have been using data from histdata.com. Some pre-processing is required to use the data in Zorro and time stamps are based on EST rather than UTC.

Thanks
I think it would be useful to know how to do that.
Maybe you can open a post related to it where you explain the pre-processing
