# CS50x-Finance
## Introduction
This is one of the assignments provided in CS50x - Introduction to Computer Science.
The goal of the exercise is to:
* Implement a website that allows users to "buy" and "sell" stock with the following functions:
* Complete the implementation of a registration system, enabling users to register for an account.
* Complete the implementation of a quote feature, allowing users to look up the current price of a stock.
* Complete the implementation of a buying system, enabling users to buy stocks.
* Complete the implementation of an index page to display an HTML table summarizing which stocks the logged-in user owns, how many shares, the current price of each stock, and the total value of each holding (i.e., shares times price). Also display the user's current cash balance and a grand total (i.e., the total value of stocks plus cash).
* Complete the implementation of a selling system to allow users to sell shares of stocks they own.
* Complete the implementation of a history page that displays an HTML table summarizing all of a user’s transactions, showing each buy and sell action.
In addition to the required functions, I added some extra features to the website:
* Allow users to change their password.
* Allow users to add more cash to their account.

## Built With
* HTML for website structure.
* Flask for backend development.
* Bootstrap for design.
* [IEX API](https://iexcloud.io/) to fetch real-time stock prices.
* sqlite3 for storing user information (username, hashed passwords) and transaction records (bought or sold stocks).
## Website
After registering, each user will have a default cash balance of $10,000.

* **Sell Page** (Select the stock you own from the drop-down list and enter the number of shares to sell):
* **Sold Page** (The sold stock is displayed in the user's history):
* **History Page** (Shows all user actions, such as buy and sell transactions):
* **Add Cash Page**:
* **Added Cash Page**:
* **Change Password** (Allows users to change their password, but the new password cannot be the same as the current one):
