I'm still a noob but I was told to average around 4 post in 24 hrs anymore then that won't do as well. On votes space out 20 minutes apart might help and 10 a day. I believe the bar your talking about is steemd@flatrider. Hopefully that will help a little. I'm still learning :) Good luck. Do you by chance know how to do a screenshot on a laptop?
