Could You get Banned?

Yes, I think it would make Jagex look at your account if you got reported for the right reason.
I don't think Jagex would just randomly begin sniffing around all the details of your account history just because of a report. It depends on what you got reported before.. I know I've been reported a few times ingame for things like swearing, and I've even been muted once. But Jagex didn't really look into my account history, they just look at what you have been reported for - like the chat history if you have been reported for swearing or being verbally abusive, etc.
Something like suddenly gaining or losing 50M in a single one-sided trade wouldn't attract alot of attention either, despite what you might think. Jagex are more concerned with the big players in the gold market - the guys who have billions of GP and rares and who are constantly trading around gold between multiple accounts. Even thoguh 50M might seem like a lot, its a very small amount of money in the grand scheme of things.

Well if you got caught buying or selling gold lets say, and you were reported, then yes there is a chance that Jagex could investigate your account for that very reason since you have allegedly been involved in RWT.
Still - there are many precautions you can take to avoid getting in any trouble if you did happen to be reported. Try to trade in areas that are not heavily populated, use safer methods of transfer like staking the gold over or gambling with it (dicing and flowers etc.), and distribute your extra wealth among several mule accounts if you have alot of wealth. This should minimize your chances of being wiped by not providing Jagex with solid evidence if they DID happen to investigate your account.
With that said, your original question is regarding the possibility of being banned. It is always up to Jagex's discretion on whether or not the offence warrants a ban, but it is becoming increasingly rare for players to be banned for offences like RWT & botting. Jagex has abandoned their old "tough on rule breaking" stance and has softened up a little, instead focusing on targeting the larger players in the black market - such as major gold sellers or people who are running very large botting operations - and issuing wealth wipes and rollbacks for regular players who are caught cheating instead.
So yes, is IS possible you could get banned if Jagex were to investigate your account and had direct evidence you had recently sold/bought 50M GP. But it is highly unlikely. Just be smart and familiarize yourself with ways you can trade as safely and inconspicuously as possible, and you should be OK
Hope that helps!
Haha sorry man I am not trying to be dominant over other users or anything like that :'(
I know sometimes my posts can get pretty long and some may consider them quite wordy or long-winded, but I just have alot to say and I want to make sure that the person with the question gets a thorough and clear answer.
