That entirely depends on your risk taking capability, that defers from person to person.
You can put your money in old and trusted exchanges like C-cex and Yobit as they are secured.
If you wish to test new exchanges, then it is not advisable to keep high amount. I usually keep around $250 in C-cex and little less in yobit.
you named two of the not so popular exchangers for keeping money!!
besides YOBIT has always have problems with payment to its users, just look at the services discussion board and you will see how many people are waiting for withdrawals.
I think cryptsy was a very well know, popular and the most trusted exchange but they were the second biggest scammers of all time i guess ? The problem with exchanges or online wallet services is that you need to trust them with your coins and just hope nothing bad happens.

I think $250 is still ok for keeping in exchanges. Any higher you should reconsider.
I have not used C-cex and Yobit so I would not comment on how trustworthy and reliable they are.
There could be no typical amount and i have kept thousands of dollars(3-5 bitcoins) on Trex in the past and had no issues at all.
