I'm new to all this and I mistakenly tried paying my rent without enough "cash available to trade" in the account I paid from. I noticed this the next morning. The Fidelity Billpay account (which annoyingly has a separate login from the brokerage and IRA accounts and I almost thought there was no record of my attempt to pay) says my payment was "completed" or "processed" or something. So, I'm not sure what happened, but I just sold enough shares from the mutual fund that was in the account to pay that bill. I guess when the trade goes through, the cash will be added to my "core position" and I'm hoping it won't be too late. I should have received a warning or something.
