Traces are good, you can still be in ketosis with only traces. I took me around a week or two, I don't fully remember & I wasn't using ketostix.0

I started keto again on Tuesday and tested on Friday to find my stick was dark purple. The frst time I did it, t took me about a week. They say if you've done it before, your body will go into ketosis quicker.0

The ketostix, if they show even trace amounts, show you are in ketosis (not the same as keto adapted). Usually, a darker color means that you aren't drinking enough water, not that you are more or less in ketosis.
I was in ketosis after a week the first time and then after that if I strayed and got out I was back in within 24 hrs.0 -
For some reason I go into ketosis super easy, usually takes me a couple hours, around 12 for trace amounts of ketones, 24 for full dark purple to set in. I can feel when I am in ketosis though. My close feel start to loosen and I feel thinner.0
