fill-or-kill order

Read a random definition: interplea

A quick definition of fill-or-kill order:

A fill-or-kill order is a type of stock market order that must be completed immediately or canceled. It is used by investors who want to buy or sell a certain amount of stock at a specific price. If the order cannot be filled right away, it is automatically canceled. This type of order is different from other types of orders, such as limit orders or market orders, which may take longer to execute or may not be filled at the desired price.

A more thorough explanation:

A fill-or-kill order is a type of stock market order that must be executed immediately or canceled. If the order cannot be filled immediately, it is automatically canceled. This type of order is used by investors who want to buy or sell a stock quickly and at a specific price.

For example, if an investor wants to buy 100 shares of XYZ stock at $50 per share, they can place a fill-or-kill order. If the order cannot be filled immediately at $50 per share, it will be canceled. This ensures that the investor does not end up buying the stock at a higher price than they intended.

Another example is if an investor wants to sell 500 shares of ABC stock at $75 per share. They can place a fill-or-kill order, and if the order cannot be filled immediately at $75 per share, it will be canceled. This ensures that the investor does not end up selling the stock at a lower price than they intended.

@Law-Shark: they didn't say we had to go? and if they are willing to buy rooms for a bunch of people. they sent me a res because I was over 50 miles away but I didn't even ask for one
16:42
@Law-Shark: also kind of rude for you to be speaking to me like that, the event started at 9am and I had to wakeup at 4 to drive in. i was tired and couldn't even check in until 4pm if I wanted to so I just drove back. it's unprofessional to offer it the night before and not the day after. they also didn't feed us actual food and we were there until 2pm.

The fact you didn't think a reservation in your name is something you need to be responsible for and cancel if you weren't going to show up to by sending a simple email is absolutely iresponsible.
16:43
I didn't make a reservation tho?
16:44
Yeah, I would have definitely gone to the hotel if I knew they booked a room for me. At the very least, it would be proper to show up personally and explain your extraneous circumstances
Law-Shark
16:44
Nah but it's in your name. I went to an ASD. I asked the school for an extra night and they gave it to me. You just need to plan things better.

This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain.
16:45

Law-Shark
16:45
disconnect*
Law-Shark
16:45
You live and you learn
16:45
because i did let one of the staff know i'd be leaving early and thought that would be enough
16:46
but i was confused why i got an e-mail with a room cuz I didn't ask for it at all
Law-Shark
16:46
Well, you know now what to do.
16:47
well on their end they prob shouldn't just be buying hotel rooms for ppl who don't request it and then getting mad I didn't go
16:48
goof
16:48
Did you get any materials for admitted students day explaining that they would be booking hotel rooms?
16:49
there was an opt in on the form but I didn't select yes
16:49
Hmm, that's weird
16:50
i think it's unprofessional of them to call you like what if you had an emergency and had to leave? why is it their business why you didn't stay? not like they're lacking money and $100.00 hotel room is gona make them bankrupt
16:50
i figured it was an error and I was on the road so I didn't read into it. plus it would make more sense for it to be the night before cuz it started at 9am? so I was like uhhh and paid it no mind
16:51
@bigfatsloth: that's what i'm saying, they were gonna pay no matter what
16:54
"This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain." like bffr
16:55
It was probably an administrative error then. I can't imagine why they would book hotel rooms for people that didn't select yes. I would maybe follow up with them and apologize for the misunderstanding to avoid any awkwardness
