I'm a bit too tired to think very clearly, but see if this helps. 
Freetrade has the following form:

/freetrade/ (this is usually the apache dir rather than a freetrade dir)
        /htdocs
        /modules

The /htdocs should be the same as your document root.  /modules (for
safety's sake) should be *outside* of your document root.  If you're
setup does not quite mesh with the above setup, you'll probably have to
hack APPLICATION_ROOT in index.php3.  Don't be afraid to call tech
support to ask if they are doing something weird with SSL (like setting
the document root for SSL to be different than the normal document
root), because if http works for your setup, https should work almost
transparently. 

Hope that helps,
-jj
