I think trading is 'haram' as long as it is on the lines of 'speculative trading' where the trader buys and sells in advance and settles his account on a certain future date. In which case, he does not own the scrip and sells/buys its before the deadline for it expires.
Going by mere logic the regular trading may not be haram since you buy a product (with its risks and rewards) and sell it.
I have not come across on any fatwas on this issue so far..
"Allah does not change the state of people unless they change what is within themselves" Quran 1311
