Where do you keep you coins safe?

If I have bitcoin than I will put most of them in my paper wallet but for daily trading I keep them in either electrum or exodus.

I hold most of my alts in exodus (if they support them) as I mostly do short term trading.

But I am also holding some alts in their individual wallets because there is no any wallets supporting them.

Tokens are stored in eidoo and MEW.

You are right, it is dangerous to leave coins on the stock exchange. I keep coins in hardware purses. I was told that this is the most reliable way to store coins

It all depends on the number of coins and the timing of investments. If you are an investor and get coins for them, it is definitely better to spread out their wallets and wait for the growth. I recommend these wallets as MEW, JAXX etc.
If you are a speculator playing the short (daily) positions, of course, it would be better to keep them straight on the exchange (I recommend Bittrex, Poloniex, Liqui).

I have a ledger nano s and I'm very satisfied with it. It's cheaper than Trezor but I can't compare them as I don't have a trezor.

With just common sense this thing should really be always done on which we should not let our coins idle or stay up on exchange for longer times but there are really some instances that you would need to store it on exchanges specially if you do make active trades on it because its somehow hassle to transfer every now and then when you do store it on your wallet which would really require some fees.

I keep majority of my bitcoins on trezor, then the reminder on blockchain.info because i am in charge of the private key. If I spot a trader, I move it over the exchange and quickly bring it back to blockchain.info.

It seems to me there is no 100% secure place to store tokens. Although maybe I'm wrong. I diversify the risks. I keep my altcoins on the exchange and on my wallet. Wink

Half half, I will put the coins or tokens I want to hold for a super long term in the local wallet. For the others, the short time investment coins , I will keep them in exchange.

Cold-storage offline wallets + mix of traditional ones like MyEtherWallet & Mist. Depends on what's needed for the day. Sometimes when I trade I use MEW to send to Bittrex/Poloniex/etc. or during token sales for ICOs just for conveniency.

If your portfolio is high as $10k, then you need to be vey care with exchange, the transaction cost is not that high, pay them and  secure your funds, unless you are a day trader

I plan on getting a ledger nano s. Everyone who has them seems to love them.

I have 50% of the money on the stock exchange, 20% in cash and 30% in online wallets, but it's still my richest income and not so much money, when the soums will be big to keep it tediously I think I'll invest in cold wallets or in real estate.
