Is it possible filling online forms using a program on my computer?

The following picture shows the page of my broker. It's stock market broker. As you can see in the picture there are 4 fields for 2 different stocks. I like to know can I write a program in my computer that reads the tables content online and do some calculation on my PC then fills the blank fields(Price and Value) then pushes Buy/Sell buttons? I mean how a human can use this site for trading, I want to leave it to my program(like stock robots. But on this stock market robots don't work).

If is it possible, how can I do that and I must search and learn what topic(s)?

enter image description here

You can use selenium to automate it. Here is the example code which written in python

from selenium import webdriver
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
url = "https://www.flipkart.com/redmi-note-6-pro-blue-64-gb/p/itmfayzxgzxwfvx6?pid=MOBFAJB4RSWTEYJJ"
driver.get(url)
zipcode = driver.find_element_by_class_name('_3X4tVa')
zipcode.send_keys('641035')
driver.find_element_by_class_name('_2aK_gu').click()
soup = BeautifulSoup(driver.page_source)
stock = soup.select('._13J5uS')
if stock:
    stock = stock[0].text
print stock
driver.close()
[OP]: Currently out of stock in this area.
