Trade Dividends

[Raduk]

Anyone seeing any? Did a lot of trading last week in Alliance systems, at a lower than usual profit margin, to see what trade dividends would be. Rank 4 all week last week, rank 5 now. Anyone make any money on this yet?

I'm not sure what mechanic you're referring to in relation to the trade dividends, but I did a simple run in a wing last night and it didn't give either of us trade dividends to claim.

They are stored in the conacts part of the various stations you trade to. Right now they seem to be missing in the Tranactions Tab.

I swear all my trade bonuses were stored at Gateway for me, Edmund Mahon HQ, even though I swear I did not trade there or make nearly enougth to make that much a bonus from what I did there.

People could try checking the home system of whatever faction your assigned to just in case it is stored at the HQ.

Only the ones you had earned while the bug still existed. The ones you earn now, with the bonus working, are stored in the station they were actually claimed - pretty much like in Wings.

EDIT: Obviously takes some time... now my (new) trade dividends show also up in the T-Tab. Or maybe the server was busy, who knows.

Ah ok. I assume that it doesn't count rares, unless mines still got to update, as I traded regulars before the update and only rares afterwards.
I guess that only the Rating 5 bonus counts for rares, unless it is just a case of not updating.

Most probably yes. No rares and only as long as the location where profit is generated either a control or exploited system.

Want to make sure I understand. Even though I trade alone, I should expect a trade dividend right since I traded in controlled systems?

You should get trade dividends for past trades that didn't show up (due to a bug) and from now on as long:

a) Your faction supports a trade bonus on faction rank 2

b) You trade within control and / or exploited systems of your faction

And yes, even in case you are alone.

Yeah that's the same case for me, so they should be somewhere or other.

Edit: as long as you fill the requirements in the post above. ^
