Unrated FIDE and ratings

Okay, so I've signed up for like 4 rapid rated competitons for this month, and I'm super keen to get a rating. I think I can, depending on how it is calculated. 

I've already completed one competition, in which I scored 1.5/4 against FIDE rated opponents with an average of 1195. Since I think 4 games is probably not enough, I believe, based on my knowledge, my recent games can be pooled in. My most recent game was against a 1015 rated opponent who I drew. Based on my calculations, I would get an end result of 1087 rating points. 

However, I have a really really important question. Will my rating be affected by my future games for this month? I really want a FIDE rating (even if it's provisional lol, I just want it to not display 'unrated' xD). I'm wondering if my rating after this month would end up being the best of my 4 tournament's performances, or the average of all of it... 

I'm sorry if I wasn't clear enough. I'm more than happy to clarify anything I couldn't explain well in the above two paragraphs. Thanks in advance, and have a good day!

I got mine after two comps in one month (prob provisional or something, idk much about FIDE ratings tbh)...
For both I had a rating performance of over 1000 (one well over, the other not so much), and I think I just got the average of those two, don't rlly remember.
Anyways, if you manage a performance of over 1000 for all your comps, you can definitely get a rating. Even if it is really low.

Hm okay...

But like, if I don't get a performance of over 1000 for the next few comps, will my rating be deeply affected?
Let's say, for one of them, I fail really badly (which is possible, as sometimes I do really well but other times I don't), will that lose my whole rating?
Also, since I only played 4 games on the first comp, do you think the game pooled in is one of my previous games or my later games...?

I'm sorry but I'm not too sure about ratings.

But for that last question, I think it's pooled from your previous matches.

I'm sorry I didn't help much...

Have a good day.
