I got my Elite rank at 999m trading profit, but I've done a bit of smuggling and very little mining.
 
Yeah, my elite trading promo came in yesterday. It was hard to figure when it would pop, because I did some smuggling before smuggling counted towards trade. I think it turns out that once you make tycoon, each 1 % is about 6.5M.
 
Congratz Commander. However it is a long road ahead I just hit elite trader on Thursday at 1 bill 14 m. Because at that point whats another 14 m
 
Congratulations! With some luck you will reach Elite even below 1 billion. I hit it at 968.000.000, trading and smuggling profit combined.

Don't know about trading but in combat you can loose progress. Just dropped from 40% to 30% percent after dying in a CZ recently. Has anyone tried if loosing money does the same to trade rank?

That's a bug if true and I would report it.

Can't see myself making the effort to Elite trading anytime soon, it's pretty tedious...
 
This is a good time to ask - will you get permission to Founder's World after reaching elite in any of the three categories?

Are you sure? It kind of makes sense to lose progress if you die. I did not only lose my progress from the recent session but dropped beyond that. Started with 40%, ranked to 45% and dropped to 30% after dying. For me that looks on purpose. Another interesting thing is that you not only improve your rank by killing ships but handing in bounties and bonds aswell.

Money has nothing to do with combat, it's a background points system based on kills and the ranks of your targets compared to your own.
 
Now why would you want to get elite in trading? :p

It all about dem CR's:D

I'm at 36% Tycoon... some way to go....:eek:

All that cash makes a lovely python, and who know i may just get an Orca for the lols:D Of course i'd get it from Alioth (permit gives -20% price for Orca + Asp and is easy to get) as the saving alone makes for the price of the jump drive :).

Once i get my Elite status for trade i can work some more on exploration /yawn.. sorry it just bores the hell out of me (and this from a trader... i know:eek:)

Fly safe, and watch out for pods of Orca's :eek: :eek: :eek:
