I get benefits from both. Using the check all spots in the derelicts by back scrolling brings the salvage return up to the max...and adds a little fun to the mission. I also use trading to improve my profit. It depends on which system I'm in. Some System jumps take more energy than others.Once Tiffany has boosted trade rates, you can get 80 protein on one planet move to a different one, sell for huge profit, then take titanium back so you're making consistent thousands upon thousands every day due to the difference between what you bought it for and what you sold it for.
I found trading far more profitable than the salvaging.
The thing I like is the openness of choices of what/which avenue you wish to pursue.
BTW, after you reach the end you might go on a little further as there is a game afterwards that lets you find out more about your crew . . .and its fun too.
