How long an order stays alive
Some orders die at the end of the day and others live until a date you set. When it expires the order is cancelled and the trade you were counting on simply does not happen. The further away the limit, the more the expiry decides the outcome.
A day-only limit at $1,000 never fills if the price only reaches $980.
