Personally, I use:

ED Market connector: https://github.com/Marginal/EDMarketConnector
The best tip I could have for that is to bind a key to update it. Whenever I land I hit f7 and it uploads the info. And it appears the info is uploaded to these tools.

https://eddb.io/trade/loops
Useful for finding trade loops although it does seem to be a bit random. Sometimes loops show up and sometimes they don't.

The loop finder on this is more accurate and predictable than the one for eddb.io but it has a limited range.

This site is pretty amazing. It has prices for all commodities, information on all the stations and systems, the ability to search for commodities nearby (useful for missions), the ability to search for ships and outfitting and route planning. The one thing it really lacks is being able to find a trade loop but it does have something that will plan a one way trade route. I use it a lot when I'm doing a trade loop because if prices fluctuate it's useful to find the best commodities to take each way by setting the origin/target to each ends of the loop.
