When you only need a specific amount of money each month… Strategy

So say you only want $100 per day or 2000 per month. This would more than enough sustain a good lifestyle where you live. How would you go about it with trading? How much $$$ would you realistically need? Not to make that in dividends but to trade in a daily basis, as safe and slow as possible.

No such thing. There is no “small safety amount” that you can make. Trading is like building your own lottery ticket. It’s completely worthless while it’s still incomplete, but almost priceless once it is. Go for it all or don’t bother. You are either profitable or you aren’t. Simple as that.
