traders who are deeply religious

Absolutely! You cited the scripture and relayed it to the subject at hand very well, IMO.

Quote from acrary:

Sure, the parable of the talents in Matthew 25:14 - 30.
Man given 5 talents invests/trades and creates 5 talents more.
When his master returns he is told "well done, good and faithful servent. You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things."

Money is not evil, just the lust for it.

I believe if you're a good,talented trader as proven by your results, you have a moral obligation to trade and grow the money the best you can. Just don't try to hold onto the money with a tight fist. Genuine opportunites will come up to bless others in need. It's at those times you will be expected to freely use the money for the good it was intended.
