I hae heard poloniex and bittrex but not the kraken one. I haven't use hem bu I think the poloniex works, some of my friends used to trade in there. You should go and ceck out some threads in the forum regarding this. They do have a thread in here, I'm not quite sure where is the link tho so I can't link it up.

Kraken.com is a good one, probably you can go with that one. Not sure about the other two.
I would also recommend avoiding cryptsy.com at this time, they are completely unreliable.

All of those are legit. Kraken is more USD/BTC and USD/LTC oriented but it does have altcoins. Poloniex and Bittrex are more altcoin trading oriented.

Those listed Kraken, poloniex & bittrex are all legit sites. They have their own price on the exchanges so they can be trusted.
If your worried about what had happened to Cryptsy then no need to worry about that happening to those exchanges anytime soon.

That all sites is legit, don't worry, as long as your asset not store on exchange wallet for long time, it's fine for me.

As far as i know if you are from New York you are not allowed to trade in poloniex, you can read more here: https://poloniex.com/terms/

I do not know the first website.
The second and the third one (i.e. : poloniex.com bittrex.com) they are legit. I used them several times to exchange altcoin to btc without facing any issues for deposit or withdraw

Kraken is run by Jesse Powell who's been in BTC for a long time. They're also being trusted with handling the Gox coins. That's a nice mark of legitimacy. Poloniex has been hacked in the past but they repaid all those who lost out. I've never used bitttrex but it seems to have a good rep. They're all solid choices but as ever it's safer to run in and out of exchanges rather than leave anything on there.

I have never tried all of those three site but have heard some good about kraken lots of time. Kraken is well known european bitcoin exchanger but i do most of my trading in bitfinex which is more than enough for my need. However bitfinex is not in your list, you may give them a try.

Kraken is legit for sure, i use them daily. The same for bittrex.

Poloniex i only use for Stellar/Lumen transactions, but i've know for years now, and yes they are reliable too.

I only use bittrex on a daily basis.
They are a solid exchange. Their support staff (richie) is also very active on bitcointalk.org.

I don't trades anymore for the simple fact, it requires too much time and it is too difficult to predict but when I did I use to do it at Poloniex & Bittrex and I never had any issues with both of them but having been said that don't ever leave too many of your coins in any exchange and make sure you enable 2fa. I have never used Kraken, so can't comment whether it is legit or not. But if I had to recommend one I'd say go with bittrex.

I can boldly say poloniex.com and bittrex.com are legit because i had used them in the past and successfully deposit and withdrawn my funds but i have not tried Kraken.com before and that does not make it illegit.

All 3 are very legit. No need to worry when using them normally.
Meaning for daily trading.
But, like always, never stash all of your bitcoins on an exchange. The thing you need for that is called offline wallet.

For bittrex i know 99% they are right. Most of the above exchanges exist a long time, but i don't use them.

Bittrex however is a elite exchanges when you compare it with some other exchanges.
