How do i remove the trade hold?

[Hays]

I got a bunch of csgo keys today and i want to trade them right now. It says that they are not tradable for 7 days but i found an article from steam saying that if you have steam mobile guard there is no trade hold. Well i had it for years now but i still cannot trade or find the option to remove the trade hold.

Items that are locked to the no trade for 7 days are locked. No way to remove it you just need to wait.

Mobile guard/authenticator would remove the 15day hold when trying to sell or trade items.

Both are 2 completely different things.

That is NOT a 'trade hold'.

It's a trade cool-down that applies to CS:GO items.

Starting today, CS:GO items received in trade will have the same seven-day trade cooldown as items purchased in-game or via the Steam Community Market.

Over time, third-parties have developed services that use automated Steam accounts to mimic players and make use of Steam’s trading functionality. Unfortunately, some of these third party services have become a vector for fraud or scams. Unlike players, these services rely on the ability to trade each item very frequently. In contrast, a given item moves between actual players no more than once a week in the vast majority of cases.

The authenticator [using it for exactly 7 days] removes the 15 day trade hold.

Trade hold applies in any of the following cases.

1) One user has not used the mobile authenticator.

2) Both users do not have the authenticator.

3) One user has not been using the authenticator for exactly 7 days (168 hours)

4) Both users have not been using the authenticator for exactly 7 days (168 hours)

You traded for the keys? Or did you purchase them on the Steam Market?

Why do you people always want to bypass holds and restrictions ? What is wrong with you ? It is there for a reason and you have to wait it out.

Ye i get it, it seems like the rule was made because of betting sites and things like that.

Minor correction to this. The checks only happen on the condition that a user is losing an item in a trade. Gifts sent through the trade system aren't subjected to the hold if the person sending the item as a gift has the authenticator. Even if the person they are gifting the item to doesn't have it, there won't be a hold.

With that in mind, never try to break such a trade into 2 different trades. That's just asking to get screwed.

I think that's obvious (at least i'd hope so), hence why i never mentioned that and the topic at hand probably did not allude to any of that.

You don't even need to confirm a 'gift offer' — on your mobile device.
