Will the 3 day Stream trade waiting period happen for every trade?
My question is if I don't use the Steam mobile authentication from the Steam app will I have to wait 3 days each trade I make or will this happen only a set amount of times? (Would much prefer they had the 2FA done by SMS or something that doesn't relies on the app, because of the nuisance it creates each time I log into Steam)
This is because I have Steam trading cards I want to trade, and I want to know if this wait time will apply each time I trade with someone.

How do I get rid of trade cooldown on Steam?
This cooldown is for your protection and cannot be removed by Steam Support. How can I remove the need for a trade or market hold? Trade and market holds are no longer necessary when you protect your account with a Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator.Why do I have to wait 7 days to trade on Steam?
If you are logging onto Steam from a device that has not been previously authorized by Steam Guard (log in confirmed via email), you will not be able to trade or use the Community Market from this device for 7 days.Why do I have to wait 15 days to trade on Steam?
Steam's documentation of trade holds says: If you're trading items with a friend, and you've been friends for more than 1 year, the hold is 1 day. If you haven't had your account protected by a Mobile Authenticator for at least the last 7 days, items leaving your account will be held by Steam for up to 15 days.Keep Giving Away Gains in 1 or 2 Bad Trades or Bad Days!? 😞
