It was "You have logged in from a new device. In order to protect the items in your inventory, you will be unable to trade from this device for 7 days." and i have already waited 7 days, this is my 7th day. :/

It has to be a full 7 days so whatever time you logged into on day one will be the same time you can start trading after on the 7th.

Try to wait for tommow, and remmber its by time as well
So if you start the time 7 days before at 5:43 it will unlock 7 days later at 5:43 not on the start of the day

Nope. It goes by whatever time it was when the restriction began, as the others have already said above.

Questions: I did not change my password so why is it saying "Wait 7 more days" i already have to wait 30! Second i thought you had to wait 1 week for Steam to validate a purchase not 30 days! Help

This is so dumb. Im replying to this post because I also had to wait 7 days. And i cancelled all my trades on sunday and then i went to try to trade with someone on saturday but still did not work. So then I told myself that i probably needed to wait one more day and im still getting the same damn thing "You cannot trade with (not saying name) because you recently had all your trade offers cancelled." Does not make sense. I tried making offer on my phone though. Do i have to do it on my computer? Also does not say the amount of days in the error message.

Has it passed the time of day you canceled the trades last Sunday? For instance, if you canceled it a 4pm last Sunday, you will not be able to trade until 4pm today.
