You'll have to ask the betting site how they'll deal with that.

Well yeah, that's what it warned you about when you chose to cancel it...

Ok, you actually have to use both -mobile and mail confirmation to trade. However, you have to confirm Evert trade with a phone, which is really pain in the ass and will negativly affect the economy. I imagine how trading looked like before and what it nas become, and it night get even worse.

I find the authenticator more convenient than confirming through email personally, though i understand many of you are comparing to having email confirmations turned off, but you'll need to understand Valve doesn't find that acceptable anymore since that still makes you a target for hijacking, and they want to discourage that.

Have you tried enabling your confirmation trades in your privacy account settings?

you AND the person you are trading with must have steam mobile authenticator activated for 7 days for there to be no 72 hour escrow.

They should have mentioned this somewhere! Thank you for sharing this info, this solved my problem of not being able to trade without hold, even after 7 days of mobile authenticator usage.
