Rocket launch system

[Thomas235711]

Hello folks, I am making an launch mechanism which will put fire in a match which will light my rocket engine. How many amperes do I need o heat enough a wire with the diameter which is just a bit bigger than a strand of hair (the voltage is 9 volts from a alkaline battery) ?

If you already have the wire and the batteries, what result do you obtain:
* with just one battery
* with two batteries in parallel
* with two batteries in series
?
