Waited 15 days with my mobile authenticator...Still cant trade.

[Zhirst]

This system was just a bad idea from the start.A full 15 days without trading, ad when i get to the end of it i still cant trade.

It has been a full 15 days, right? As in a full 360 hours and not a second less? Also, is it Steam telling you that you can’t trade or that dodgy trading site you’re advertising in your profile name?

I've waited the entire 15 days and i don't use or know any dodgy sites. Steam just doesn't want me to trade.

So you put a website in your Steam profile name that you don't know? Odd.

Pretty much, and it looks like moderators forgot to add it to the filter too.

That's because that website isn't dodgy I've used that website multiple times for trading

At the bottom of the homepage the name of the payment provider they use is censored here. Enough for me to say if it isn't in itself dodgy they are dealing with dodgy providers.

So why are they making you do their dirty advertising work by having their name in your username?

To rephrase in hopes of addressing OP's question:
Is it Steam telling you that you can’t trade or a 3rd party site (E.G. tradeit.gg)?

What error(s) does this page give you?

Steam is telling me i have to wait another 7 days before trading even though I've had the authenticator for 15 days and the steam support site also says: If your account was already protected by Steam Guard via email, you will have no new restrictions from using trading or the Community Market.

Because most to almost all trading sites decrease your items price, having this in a username allows the trader to keep his items near its original price.

Recently cancelling a trade, newly authorized devices, trades created within 7 days of adding mobile auth can result in a 7 day restriction. Additionally, certain items also have their own trading cooldowns, regardless of whether or not you have mobile authenticator.

Check your email for when you enabled the mobile authenticator. What is the time/date in it?

This isn't the exact date nor time but i do know it was enabled around the 14th through 15th. The exact time and date email was cleared after getting my email attacked.

So then why on their site they say there is no new restrictions.Also no new notifications appear in the market telling me about this.

Guesses aren't exact times.

Downloading and installing the app is not all that is needed.

Enabling it is what counts.

I was receiving email codes for the authenticator and had the phone number as well.The authenticator was enabled just not codes for mobile.

Since you can't tell us exactly when you added the mobile authenticator then I can only tell you that you need to kinda sorta wait a little longer. Neither forum users or moderators here can change that.
