Double Elite in a Sidewinder

That's a very good suggestion. I have a Cutter in my other account. I didn't know that trade profits were shared - though it would be sort of cheating.

Has a cutter in one account. Is double elite in this one with a sidewinder.

Just rank grind for the factions use data delivery missions.

By the time you've unlocked both the cutter and corvette, you'll have your trade rank, trust me.
 
The ultimate grind (nearly). After 238 hrs of play-time, I got my double Elite. The Explorer one was fairly easy at 41.5 hours, but I had to blow up approximately 8000 ships to get my combat Elite - nearly all done in a high RES. I was blown up three times: Once when I shot a Gunship and forgot about its fighter, which got me from behind before I had a chance to fight back; once by the feds when I made a mistake just as the bad guy blew up, so about 12 of them of which 6 were Anacondas, turned on me; and once by a Cobra with rail guns after I suffered a ram and scan from another ship, which took down my shields and 40% of my hull in the middle of the fight.

I earned 413 million in bounties doing the combat, so that's an average of just over 2 million an hour, though I was playing for kills rather than credits.

Now I'm thinking about how to get the trading Elite with only 5T cargo capacity.

Good job. May be rares could be an option for trading, or smuggling if that's still a thing?
 
Don't trade, go and do the guardian mission over and over for the 111 million - handing it in completely goes toward you trade rank - easy peasy!

The Palin missions at Obsidian Orbital are perfect. 5-18 mill reward for 1-3 t cargo.

The old Thargoid scout is close, with all required materials.

You could try rare trading I guess, the right route could prove to be relatively painless and profitable.

I say this because rare trading seems to be purpose built for smaller ships (asp x/ t6 and smaller).
 
In which case it was stealth changed in one of the recent small patches as I've completed it several times and once since 2.4 and have always seen a big jump in trade rank.
