ST only provides text lists of what people have and want. Matching what you want & have with what other people want & have is basically limited to one game at a time. You may get tired of getting messages like "Anything here for your game X?" when they have absolutely nothing on your wish list. ST might be more useful for people who don't strictly trade games, like people who trade games for gems or TF2 keys, and if you don't then expect to get the occasional key offer for games.
Barter (and presumably LesTrades which was made when Barter dev went away for a while), although its not pretty looking, has:
Auto wishlist & library syncs
Trader matching system that can match you with traders on multiple games
Notifications of offers & accepted offers via feed, email, or Discord
Ability to track your list of tradeable games and tag them in many ways
Manual game blacklist/ignore sync with Steam
Each game's supply & demand on the site
Details of each game's price, reviews, region locks, number of trading cards, if there are achievements, mass giveaways, etc
Which bundle-type deals every game has been in - Thanks to their editor Lilly, aka sensualshakti, who also makes SG's Deals posts and croud sources relevant info
User or editor sourced warnings such as region restrictions, beta keys, store delisting or bannings, key revocations, etc
More meaningful stats on traders than just + or - on ST

Just a quick question, why SteamTrades button was removed from SteamGifts?
Or is it there somewhere and I just can't find it?
