Hi Michael. as i said to che, the trade window does unfortunately obscure several planets, which makes trading a real pest. if locations are vanishing suggest making sure the trde window is closed before going somewhere else. this does make trading a lot slower than in smugglers 3, but I've suggested that nielsbauer include a minimize button, so that you can look over all the planets of the system and the prices of the various goods without the window in the way.
