I would say that the Romantic trait discussed in this short story is about individual choice and how Tom Walker apparently sells his soul to the devil in order to get the buried treasure and even he and his wife hoard things from each other, things that should belong to both of them and be shared by both of them. At the time it was written it was a Faustian tale or tale of characters showing their greed and selfishness.
