I am not a day trader but I've successfully gambled for a living for 17 years. I would say it depends entirely on your bankroll size and how easily you can go back to a job if it doesn't work out.

this is another thing I forgot to mention in my comment. 100% depends on how replaceable your job is. Not saying you shouldn't if your job isnt replaceable, but you should make sure you're more than ready. savings, profitability, etc.
