Minimum 20x the max buy-in if you single table and are comfortable moving down if you drop to 10. I'd still recommend more.
If you multi-table, I'd say 30x - 50x the max buy-in is a realistic amount for long-term success. I have around 37 buy-ins for $100 NL, and that has seemed to work pretty well for me. You really can't go wrong being overly cautious for NL.
As for when to call it a day... as long as the game is good and you're on your A-game, I would keep playing; otherwise leave. I know some players like the idea of "protecting a win," but usually this is flawed thinking. However, say you're playing $50 NL and you get up to $200 somehow. Everyone else has around 1 buy-in, but one good player has $250 in front of him. So against that guy, you're playing for $200 stakes, but $50 stakes against everyone else. So, if you're not comfortable risking that, either avoid confrontation with the other big stack, or leave the table and buy-in somewhere else for $50. Or you could go for that $250 of his and end up getting broke like me...

xDiamond_CutteRx brings up a good point. There have been times I've been up pretty big and the only "real" money left on the table is from a good player. If that player is also very tight and aggresive I am not likely to want to continue since I'm not playing for much.
Everyone has their own idea of a good table though, if the table remains good when I'm up, I want to stay.

so diamond... is there a lot ur keep track of? i know for limit a pro said they wouldn't let them lose more than 30 big bets per night. how about you?
i've never had a bankroll before, but it seems like its something i need because i can go bust so easily when i go on tilt. i usually deposit, les says 200 dollars and hit 2 nl100 tables for around 50. it works sometimes, but then again, it doesn't over the long run for me.
i know a friend that buys in for only 25 bucks each time and has cashed out enough money on stars. he seems to do pretty well like that.

Poker is a fickle game. Sometimes when I get down, I chase & end up busting out & needing to re-load. Other times I make it back. So it's hard for me to decide when to quit as I have had success & failure chasing my lost money. But deep down, when I am playing, and it's 2 am, and I am tired as hell, I KNOW I should have quit long ago.... :D
