A profitable spread can still be blocked

If the account is under a trade hold, market restriction or security review, you may not be able to move inventory quickly enough for the spread to matter.

Cooldowns increase capital cycle risk

Trade cooldowns and market delays extend the time between purchase and sale. Longer cycles increase price volatility and opportunity decay.

Use official Steam notices as the source of truth

Platform rules change. Treat FloatVia content as operational education and verify account-specific restrictions directly inside Steam before execution.
