from fidelity import fidelity
browser = fidelity.FidelityAutomation(headless=False, save_state=False)
# Login
step_1, step_2 = browser.login(username="USER", password="PASS", save_device=True)
if step_1 and step_2:
print("Logged in")
elif step_1 and not step_2:
print("2FA code needed")
code = input("Enter the code\n")
if browser.login_2FA(code):
print("Logged in")
else:
print("Browser not logged in")
exit(1)
# Get accounts
account_info = browser.getAccountInfo()
accounts = account_info.keys()
# Test the transaction
success, errormsg = browser.transaction("INTC", 1, 'buy', accounts[0], True)
if success:
print("Successfully tested transaction")
else:
print(errormsg)
# Print withdrawal balance from each account
acc_dict = browser.get_list_of_accounts(set_flag=True, get_withdrawal_bal=True)
for account in acc_dict:
print(f"{acc_dict[account]['nickname']}: {account}: {acc_dict[account]['withdrawal_balance']}")
browser.close_browser()
