I added a global variable to my feed script called DISCOUNT which allowed me to adjust the price. I then multiplied this value by the variable in python that is used in the conversion to a string to publish the price feed (i.e. you need it in the form of "1.000 STEEM" and "0.410 SBD").

This quick fix of multiplying a float by another float failed and now I am going through to see what's going on with it.

I have been doing precisely what you suggest manually. What's the problem?

In addition, I really don't have time to interact with and respond to someone who continuously flags people's original content (like @edgeland's entirely unique post on Nonverbal Education from Huxley's "Island". I happen to be partial to that user ... ).
