Once a trade is agreeded upon, how does the actual transfer take place since you can not transfer miles/points from program to program?
As was said, most trades are where one person makes a reservation for the other party.
However, there are some programs that do allow transfer of points between peoples accounts. The ones that come to mind are SPG and Marriott.
