To answer your question, the trade section is about trading games. Like, what do you want to trade? o.O

And of course you can trade items. The part where the guidelines say "Regional or trading restrictions on gifts or ITEMS you're planning to trade should be specified in the description" make it quite obvious. ;P

You can trade pretty much anything in the trade forums - including coupons. It's just a matter of who will take them.
Number 1 rookie mistake is overvaluing your own items. Do a bit of research before you start trading! Also, make sure to build up your rep with small trades. Only make large trades in the Steam trades window where both sides have their items entered.
Just don't bring it over to the discussion forums.

Items available on Steam Store like movies, games, hardware and etc, i guess is allowed to trade in trade section.

You can trade backgrounds and icons and in-game items too. But probably not much people will be interested in those trades. (think I saw a trade about trading backgrounds not get any traffic in his thread for 1 month before someone was interested)
Most common trades are:
Games for games
Games for cards/ref/gems
Games for csgo/tf2 case keys

As honestkiddy mentioned, Items from Steam market and even other Game Stores like Origin or Uplay and etc can be traded here.

if we could only trade games I wouldn't have a place here, with over 5300 games, steam only has like a few thousand I don't own and nobody is trading any of them

Why not? It's pretty common that you'll see cards for games, TF keys for cards, even cross-platform key trading etc. So yes, you can trade whatever you like if it's legal. I think I've even seen TF keys for digital paintings.
Unfortunately sometimes even illegal while no-one bats an eye (students selling MS academic licenses).

Well, trade section is largely unmoderated. On the bright side, yes, main purpose is swapping games you don't want for games you actually want (usually legal within bundle sites TOS). On the other hand you have some who made it into their little business, buying large amount of bundle games and selling them for profit - violation of TOS (games for TF keys then TF keys for PayPal). Yet, on the scale it's nowhere near the G2A and similar shady reselling sites.
There's reason why Valve killed cross-region gifting and bundle sites start limiting purchases and apply single key tier activation bundles.

It's not something that big, you can trade anything you like as long as both sides are happy I think :)

There are people selling windows and office keys, so I guess it's alright.

If you want to trade cards, icons or backgrounds then you can find 1:1 in set trades with SteamTradeMatcher :
http://www.steamtradematcher.com/
Unfortunately they don't provide for out of set trades even when they're the same market value.

Im working on a bot that will do cross set card trading, as long as they are same value in market. I suck at coding, so its still a while off. But steamtradematcher is great for the time being.

Anything but coupons. It's not even limited to Steam, I've even seen someone putting up a Diablo III in here once.
