Did I make Roth IRA contribution after the deadline?
I opened my Roth IRA account following the Wealthfront recommendation on July 5, 2017 and contributed 00. I am new to Roth IRA at that time.
However, today (Jan 3, 2018) I just know there is a deadline for Roth IRA which is around April 15 each year.

What should I do now? Thanks.

And can I contribute another 00 to this year 2018? Or will the 00 I deposited on July 5, 2017 will count 2018 (since it is after deadline)?

You are misunderstanding the deadlines. The deadline for 2017 contributions is April 15, 2018. And the deadline for 2018 contributions is April 15, 2019.

The contribution you made on July 5, 2017 is for tax year 2017. Now that it is 2018, you can make 2018 contributions, and you have until April 15 of next year to do so.
