I use online wallets. I believe that this is one of the safest ways to store cryptocurrency. It is very simple.

Put it in your wallet so that you can rest assured. If the exchange is hacked then I will lose all the money.

I chose to keep altcoins on the stock exchange. Of course there is a risk that the exchange will be hacked. But I have orders for all my coins and if the price starts to fall, I will keep my money in Fiat.

If you trade coins, you can keep them on the exchange. But if not, it will be better to have them in the software wallet or hardware wallet. If you own the erc20 tokens, MEW is a good choice.
There are also many wallets for multiple cryptos, for example

Coinomi - This is the wallet that contains the largest amount of cryptos.
Exodus - Exodus offers the exchange of certain cryptos between them without having to send them to the stock exchange.
JAXX - You can safely store your tokens in it. There is also a mobile version.

If I have made a lot of purchases and do not plan to sell, I am sending my wallet. If I do not send help but buy. and I am shopping from major sites. I think that if they have security weakness because they are world famous, they will meet them. But of course there is still uncertainty and guarantee when it is crypto.

I don't have a lot of altcoins so I just leave it on the exchange if I expect the price of it go up short term. Even if the exchange runs away with it it's not a big loss for me.

Are you keeping them on the exchanges or downloading a wallet for each altcoin you buy? is there a multi wallet that has support for many altcoins?
I store my sub altcoins through MyEtherWallet (MEW). and altcoin investments at Ledger Nano S Cryptocurrency hardware wallet. You can refer to the web address : www.ledgerwallet.com

I am a great fan of the offline wallets and I believe that we should keep our funds with ourselves to get the real benefit of cryptocurrencies. As we all know that crypto is all about the self responsibility, we must take required precautions while using it. Thus, not only Bitcoin but I also hold my alt-coins in offline wallets.

I didn't find any purse that could use all the coins, so I would sell it for ether every time and put it on the exchange so I could buy and sell at any time.

Definitely not on the exchange. For large amounts, you should store it onto your own personal wallet (eg: ERC-20 compatible tokens in wallets such as MEW, Metamask, etc). Not safe at all to store large amounts on exchanges. But then again, even personal wallets can be hacked. I believe the safest is still cold wallet storage if you are looking of amounts that are large, like 6-digit onwards

Personnally, I keep all altcoins(tokens ERC20) in my MEW wallet. If they are not tokens then I keep them in my pc in their respective wallets.
Like most, I am not in favor of leaving the coins in the exchanges unless it is of short duration to perform trading because you don't have total control over your wallets (private keys).
I also have an altcoin in a paper wallet that is a very safe way to hold.

Try using MyEtherWallet combined with some of the cold wallets like Ledger. Pretty safe

Yes suitable for Ethereum based tokens and secured

It really depends on what you hold. If you're not trading you should definitely send your coins out of exchanges, but if you are trading, you may want to keep your coins in exchanges to avoid withdrawal fees (but then acknowledge the risks of losing your coins due to exit scams or hacks, and prefer trading on good exchanges like Binance, Bitfinex, Bittrex)

After buying the tokens on the exchange, I usually forward them to my erc-20 wallet and store them there with a Trezor way

The answer to that question is it depends. Some altcoins like ERC20 tokens can be stored in MEW or MyEtherWallet as they are all Ethereum-based coins. There are also NEM-based tokens that are stored in there Nanowallet like MEW. While some popular wallet apps like Coinbase can hold different kinds of coins in their app from Bitcoin to Litecoin. If you are lucky you can find a wallet provider that holds even more different kinds of coins.
Great. Compatible wallets have been developed for these coins. I do store my coins in either MEW or NEM so long as my security access are not publicized. These two wallets have never disappointed me. I keep the coins till I feel like I want to sell them out on an exchange.
