No, you're not out of luck. If it doesn't clear by 24:01, you will not have an opportunity to clear until the gate.

The risk is if R space opens between 0:30 and 24:00. Your existing RPU that you waitlisted cannot clear in that window due to the SHARES limitation. The only way to secure that space prior to the gate is to burn another RPU.
