You need to set the Cookie key steamLogin to your session id. You can perform login on your browser and get this value.

cookie = {'steamLogin': '76561198058933558%7C%7C2553658936E891AAD'}    
data = requests.get('http://steamcommunity.com/market/pricehistory/?country=PT&currency=3&appid=730&market_hash_name=Falchion%20Case', cookies=cookie);

I have used a random steamLogin value here, change it to your session id.

You can try performing login from through python as well, but you might want to turn off steam guard for making things simpler. I would have demonstrated performing login automatically, but I don't wish to disable my steam guard and get a 15 day trading restriction.
