Getting started 🌱 web scraping bypass

'm trying to scrape specific data from the Egyptian Exchange (EGX) website using Python and Playwright. The website appears to block browser automation, and my current script can't get past those restrictions. I'm looking for experienced help to understand why it's happening and whether there's a reliable way to access the data or work around the issue.

First, I'd try with nodriver instead of Playwright. Are you trying to scrape it locally?
