35 buyins if you are talking about a day.
Not much more if you are beating them with a nice ROI, with <10$ ROI, perhaps 50-75 buyins a week.

I think a 50 buyin downswing wouldn't be too uncommon.

I guess if you don't have 30 buyin downswing, you are either not playing long enough, or are not fully making use of your earning potential.

I don't have 30 buyin downswing over the last >10k games.[img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

20-30 BI downswings are not that uncommon, 50 is possible for a winning player, especially if you are playing turbos. For regular sngs 20-30 BI DS is reaching the peak of what you should expect though IMO
