what order type do i need

[Guest ison22]

hi guys, newbie here so this is probably a silly question, and im pretty new to investing and have never placed a trade before, ive only just opened my share dealing account so its all new to me. im looking to invest long term, 1-5 years if the company's right. so when i was placing a bid and notices GTC was 90 days and i wondered how that work with me wanting to invest for longer? what order type do i need? thank in advance xx

Hi @ison22, the 90 days refers to the length of time a pending order can remain on the system, once the order is executed and your trade is open it is no longer relevant.
