I personally would not daytrade a stock that has an average volume of 50,000 shares a day. The market makers have it all over you.

If a stock typically maintains a wide spread with good volatility and trades 200,000+ shares per day I would consider daytrading it.

Is it a typically volatile stock? What is the number of shares outstanding? 400,000 share may make for good liquidity on a given day, but that liquidity can dry up pretty quick if things cool down.

Daytrading is much different than position trading and does not leave much room for error. My advice is stick with VERY large, VERY liquid stocks.
