Some of the references I have seen claim a connection
between trade and Standing Stones sites.

Quite true.
Even for a site with a dramatic sun alignment we can't be
sure that was the primary purpose.
As to the sun alignments, I think that was intentional
rather than accidental. Especially sites that are
close together -- e.g. the combination of
Dowth (winter solstice sunset alignment);
Knowth (equinox sunset alignment); and
Newgrange (winter solstice dawn sun alignment).
