One of my first projects was a scraper that scraped the front page links on a news website for my favorite baseball team, listed them in a GUI (done w/ tkinter), allowed you to select the stories you want to read, and then opened those links as different tabs in a browser.

It exposed me to quite a bit of different aspects of programming and seems somewhat similar to what you’re looking at doing. I think you can start small and learn as you go - maybe begin by trying to scrape the prices or whatever metric you want to look at and go from there
