It depends on how much money you're using, and how high of a salary you are aiming for. I think if you have $10,000 to day/position trade with you can probably earn 1-2k a month if you're strong at trading. Having more money gives you more opportunities, as you will be stuck in position less often. I am being decently generous with these projections though, you may have lower results but with time you can probably get to that point consistently.
