Couple of things. With the A5 FSD you can go 150 ly without refuelling, so why risk scooping interdictions and heat damage from that. And wasted time
If you dump your shields and choose cargo instead you can cram in 128t, and therefore make 1.8 million per trip

Cause i want some fun - i want to be interdicted and to interdict sometimes and I dont want to pay for fuel - the time for scooping is used to get the new nav point...
You are talking about most profit and efficiency. That was what i did before and my fun went to 0. I did it to grind for the asp and its upgrades and thats ok.

Btw if someone is searching for a stable inner system route with stations 3Ls aways from each other and ~1000-1200cr./t profit each way go for Nima Rushword Terminal (Beryllium or Gallite) and Burbank Orbital (Superconductors) - did that one really really often ^^ ;-) 6 Minutes per run ~270k-300k Cr. with an 128t asp - thats >2.7 millions an hour while watching a tv show on the second screen :D

I finished the same trade run today because the distance between Ethgreze and Chi Eridani is optimal for trading the rare commodities between them.

Yes, I actually used your graph for finding the Ethgreze - Chi Eridani - Lave - Ethgreze Triangel Run. It is perfect. A bit too perfect. But well... I like being able to outfit ships, buy new ships and do what ever I like.

profit is to large, it needs to be nerfed down

I was thinking this too, then it occurred to me. My ship's insurance is 1million credits. It cost me 18 million outfitted (approx).
An anaconda's insurance will be what, 10-15 million? So actually, there needs to be more lucrative routes / profits not less... a 10k bounty isn't going to cut it.

there is more to come - as it is now there is a big gap between an asp and the next ship that makes a leap in profit with trading - much worse when looking at long range trading

i hope the upcoming ships, missions and other improvements will fill the gaps a balanced way

I am doing pretty good in a T6 as well. It is a bit much, if you compare it to all other things right now.

It's like... o.k., lemme fly 20 minutes and i buy an A drive... what... only B Thrusters... well... better than E.

Slower restocking and/or needing to be friendly with the dominant system faction would be rather neat ways of balancing the over-the-top rewards when trading rare goods. It will be balanced one way or another sooner or later.

A means of leveling up that doesn't take 6 months is needed. We only have the ships we know about, to consider the time it will take to level up. Can you imagine how much the 'imperial cruiser will cost and how you will raise that amount of dosh. I imagine the type 9 trading rare goods will go a long way toward that

Well... I am not saying I don't like it.

It's just that all professions should pay in regards to risk, fun, and similar to each other. If you compare rare trading to everything else... then everything else just pales.

Not only the initial costs, but the ongoing costs, especially if you get destroyed... The insurance figures are rather large and only increase as you add new equipment or buy bigger ships.
