Sequence of Firing of a Rule

I'm trying to figure out the sequence / priority if multiple rules are configured in DTM.

For example

1. Page Load track events gets executed even if no other rule is setup.

2. Then I also have a event based rule on the same page load ( Tracking the dataelement change in the same page)

I wanted to know whether these two data will go into a single image request or separately. And if they go separately then what is the sequence.

It depends on if the first rule fires and completes before the 2nd rule fires.(Its called a race condition). If you are unsure check in your network console and look at beacon(s) and how they fire, as well as contents of each. If its a single page app tehn also look at differnt types of rules you can fire to alleviate race conditions.
