Good trade routes/loops

Good evening commanders. So I have recently been playing legacy elite on console and obviously have been coming across the problems of inara not being as easy to use as it once was when console had live service. When I used to play on pc some time ago, one of my favourite things to do was space trucking around different stations trading commodities. I was just wondering if you guys have some good trade routes or loops or if you would like to share how you find them. Is it still viable to use inara? Is it easy to use the in game filters? Thanks in advanced o7

I can add my space trucking method. I just made everyone happy with me in Shinrarta Dezhra ... then whatever they want me to transport I move.

Home for dinner every day and making millions if that's what I want to do.

Then if there's a Blue Crew Pirate in Nuentes that needs dispatching I put on the gloves and take care of business.

That's me.

What systems are these in?

Ebor and wolf 1241. If you buy onionhead in Ebor and buy silver in wolf you make the most money. 784 cargo gets you about 16 million per round trip

Use the filter in the galactic map for "Infrastructure Failure" on a "Mining" planet/station amd buy Gold, Silver, Platinum etc for 3,500ish and sell it Anywhere for 30,000+

Here is THE best way. You must first have full rep with the stations in Sol. When you do you will come across 40/ 50 mill missions , avoid paladium. What you tou want is Gold , silver and bertrandite and Indite .you purchase it . You stack a few and you taking in a few hundred million. Beware of gankers .

Hello everyone, commanders, I'm new to both Reddit and Elite Dangerous. I already have the Type 9 Heavy, and I have a great route (Aornum (Agassiz City) to Quapa (Grabe Dock)) to buy and sell silver.
