If I buy stocks on margin, how long before I have to repay the margin?


On Fidelity it says I have 100K I can use for margin. I was feeling really bullish on a stock that reported earnings AH today, but decided to just invest the $5k I deposited. They are up 8% AH. So I regret not using margin to buy and then swing trade tomorrow or even next month. So Im trying to understand margin trading/investing.

How long do I have before I am required to repay it if I borrow something like $100k?
