Start Stock Trader application

The generate_five_stocks.py application must run before launching StockTraderApp.py application. Follow these steps:

1. Launch the generate five stocks file with:

python3 generate_five_stocks.py

This would take a minute or two to generate random stocks.

2. Launch the Stock Trader Application with:

streamlit run StockTraderApp.py

3. Once the application launches successfully on the browser, navigate to Create Admin Account, enter details and sign up.

4. After logging in as the administrator, under task navigate to Market Hours and set the Open time and Close time and submit it.

Important:

A. If this step isn't completed then it might throw errors when you go to buy/sell stocks.
B. Right now market schedule is hard coded to work only during working days i.e. Monday to Friday, if you run this application during a weekend, then you may want to change some parameters under Stock-Trader-App/Admin/market_hours_schedule.py change (0 <= time.localtime().tm_wday <= 4) to (0 <= time.localtime().tm_wday <= 6)

5. Now you may now proceed to register as a user from sidebar.

6. After registering as user you may now login as user and proceed to perform deposit/buy/sell/withdraw operations.

Important: Perform this in a sequential order deposite -> Buy -> Sell/Withdraw/ViewPorfolio operation else it might throw errors.

7. View Porfolio might throw an error but all you have to do is select another stock from the drop down menu.
