Building a trade depot will allow you the opportunity to trade with caravans that arrive at your fortress. Each of the three friendly races will send a caravan once per year, however they will not arrive unless your region is marked as accessible by them. Dwarves will always arrive regardless of location, however.
Human wagons on top of the regular mules will arrive if there is a minimum 3-wide path from your depot to an map edge. You do not need to have a road, but you will need to [d]esignate [s]moothing and [t]ree-cutting along the path.
A broker is not required but is preferable for getting better deals. To toggle wheter anyone can trade or just the broker is done with [b]. [r]equesting a trader at the trade depot will queue a job on the traders list. A higher level of brokerage will give you greater returns, so if you're dependent on trade it's recommended to keep one dwarf as broker and level up his appraisal skill as high as possible.
