Creating a new portfolio

First we must create a new simulated investing portfolio. The "CreatePortfolioAsync" method will asynchronously create a new simulated portfolio and return to you the portfolio ID (a GUID). Keep this in a safe place as it will be used for every other method and cannot be recovered if lost! The parameter of this method is your name, the owner of the portfolio.

string PortfolioId = await PaperTradeHelper.CreatePortfolioAsync("JohnDoe");
Console.WriteLine("Your portfolio ID is '" + PortfolioId + "'.");
Console.ReadLine();

Adding cash to your portfolio

PaperTradeHelper pth = new PaperTradeHelper("a9fc4317-4329-48b8-ae6f-807fcf6c3b93");
await pth.EditCashAsync(1500f);

}
