Python based web scraping using selenium for extracting current portfolio holdings.

• Currently only support Edge driver

Trading212 is a great online broker for trading CFDs and stock investments. Although it has a built-in portfolio tracking of holdings, it is not very versatile. This script will help extract current holdings of free_fund, account_value, market_value, buy_price, sell_price, ticker name etc. - you can then export this to something like Google Sheets and make your custom Portfolio tracking.
