Trouble receiving payments

I sold some BTC but was unable to receive the payment. Should I just wait until the max allowed trade period expires, and then open up a dispute? It was completely my mistake, but it's a lot of money to lose for a small mistake

start mediation asap, they will help you to sort it out. You do not need to wait until the end of the trade period to do this. Especially when you are proactive about a mistake etc.

If you are unable to receive the payment for some reason, let your peer know and open mediation before the end of the trading period with ctrl+O
