ha I was thinking that but doesnt it effect your credit score in realtime possibly diminishing my chances of getting a nice credit line

i second what Nixon said, but a good amount would be around 5-7.

or to make it easier once you start getting denials stop.

Good luck my friend.

App until you start getting denials or really low limits. Take a break, wash, rinse and repeat.
