While the two actions can indeed appear to coalesce, they are wholly different in one key point:

Selling points usually involves legitimately playing in the arena with a member of the team that joined through paying a team an 'entry fee'. It does not involve exploitation of the arena system by playing the same team over and over again — among other things — and purposely allowing someone to win against you, or using another team to boost your team's rating.

Can selling points lead to win-trading? Sure. Those that participate in win trading will be actioned accordingly.

Selling points is currently not against our policies, but please note that they are always subject to change.
Emphasis mine.



Keep in mind that the new patch will likely make point selling moot -- since, if your personal rating doesn't closely match the team's rating -- you'll only get points according to your personal rating.
