Depends on your style, your previous winrates, how good you are, whether you plan on moving down if you get killed etc, but I would recommend at least 5-6k.

Playing $100NL. A few months, but that includes cashing out a lot etc. Now on the verge of moving up to 400NL.

if you have a good winrate at 100nl, then I'd say you could move up at 4k, as long as your willing to move down if it doesn't go well.
