RDR 2 Online - 2000 Trader XP in 20 minutes (grinding Small Local Deliveries)
29- at the start: 1000 Trader XP from 4 fast Small Local Deliveries in 6 minutes
- by the end: 2375 Trader XP in 21 minutes
If you wanna XP grind Trader fast, I think this could be the best Camp location for it... to grind Small Local Deliviries over and over.
By now a lot of Traders are realizing that Deliveries give the same XP regardless of # of Goods sold. While it's greatly more efficient for money-making to wait for the largest Delivery size, it's a lot faster to grind XP to just constantly do Small Local Deliviries over and over for a constant 250 Trader XP.
Camp location then becomes paramount to efficiency since every Camp appears to have 2-3 Delivery locations for both Local and Distant.
IMO possibly the best Camp location would have to be in Gaptooth Ridge along the San Luis river.

- The same sequence extends to 1875 Trader XP in 17 minutes, and 2375 Trader XP in 21 minutes
Using this location I went from Trader Rank 10 to Trader Rank 15 in about 2 hours.
Consertavily, whilst hunting and using 2 other nearby locations (one shown below) I went from Trader Rank 5 to Trader Rank 10 in about 5 hours, and also Trader Rank 15 to Trader Rank 20 in 5 hours. I had already reached Club Rank 70 by this point as well.

All of which basically revolved around 2 main aspects:
- cosntantly doing Small Local Deliviries for 250 Trader XP over and over
- a Camp location as close as possible to both (all) Delivery drop-off locations
Main point is that doing constant Small Local Deliveries (even with 1 Goods) was netting me a conservative 2000 Trader XP (a full Trader Rank) every 30-45 minutes, but every 20 minutes was doable with efficiency and in theory 12 minutes with luck.
TLDR: I was getting 2000 Trader XP (full new Trader Rank) every 20-30 minutes but in theory as fast as every 12 minutes.
