    import ccxt
    import datetime

    # Create an object to interact with the Binance API
    exchange = ccxt.binance({
        'rateLimit': 1200,  # Number of requests per minute (adjust to your needs)
        'enableRateLimit': True,  # Enable rate limiting
        'apiKey': 'YourAPIKeyHere',  # Your API key
        'secret': 'YourAPISecretHere',  # Your API secret key
    })

    # Specify the trading pair and timeframe
    symbol = 'BTC/USDT'  # Example: Bitcoin/USDT pair
    timeframe = '1M'  # Monthly timeframe

    # Set the timeframe, starting from January 1, 2017
    start_date = datetime.datetime(2017, 1, 1)
    since = exchange.parse8601(start_date.isoformat())

    # Get historical data
    ohlcvs = exchange.fetch_ohlcv(symbol, timeframe, since=since)

    # Print the first few candles as an example
    for ohlcv in ohlcvs:
        timestamp, open_, high, low, close, volume = ohlcv
        print(f"Date: {datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(timestamp / 1000)}, "
              f"Open: {open_}, "
              f"Close: {close}, "
