No dedicated trading forum?

TBH having a trading forum/topic in each gamehub makes no sense when you want to do general trades not necessarily a game specific trade (of course if there is a specific game related trade, then they should go to that gamehub).

I see no point in posting general trades anywhere in any of the gamehubs so FWIW general trades should be allowed in off topic at least.

Why not use the Steam Trading Cards Group trading forum, if you don't want to make game specific trades?

You can use the old trade forums http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=1189

Well there many groups out there for general trading...
like these one:
http://steamcommunity.com/groups/FoxTradingGroup/discussions

(you can select a topic and use that to trade)
