Nothing to do with trading...but just been out in the garden with my son watching Elon's starlink. mighty impressive
(you can see with the naked eye, but better if you have optics etc)
Although not fully dark, you can still see the satellites tracking past.
Think you can still see them till around 10pm tonight
Guess, 50 degrees above the horizon East ! (if youre not sure where east is, look at your sky dish as a rough idea!)

Starlink
Went outside to have a look. Sure enough, a tightly packed silvery trail was visible above the houses to the east. Peered a bit closer. It was a neighbour's TV aeriel glinting in the moonlight.
Went back indoors to watch Bear Grylls on TV. I bet he'd have found them....

Just been to have a look but couldn't see any, will have to settle for online videos.
Out of curiosity, I was reading the other day that the UK had cancelled the 5G agreement with Huawei & Starlink is what's gonna be the provider of the UK'S internet, I have no idea if that holds any truth.

I already knew that the vast majority of the earth is far smarter than me but Elon is next level. Imagine have this as one of your to do's on the bucket list and achieving it. Its scarily impressive.
