Day Order

An order to a broker to buy or sell a security that expires at the end of the trading day if not filled. For example, one may make a day order to sell a stock at $35 or better. If the stock never rises above $30, the order is not filled and expires worthless at the end of the day. If the shareholder still wishes to sell the stock the next day, he/she must make a new order.

A day order is an instruction you give to your broker to buy or sell a security at the market price or at a particular price you name before the end of the trading day. The order expires if it isn't filled.

In contrast, a good 'til canceled (GTC) order remains open on the broker's books until it's filled, you cancel it, or the brokerage firm's time limit for GTCs expires.
