Why it matters
A deadline pushes you to oversize near the end, which is how most accounts breach. Without one, a slow, steady strategy works: 0.3% a day still clears an 8% target in about 27 trading days. Use the profit-target calculator to check your own pace.
Watch for inactivity rules. A firm can drop the deadline but still close accounts with no trades for 30 days.
