I have recently took investing on poloniex serious. Ever since I've invested the alt coins have been down. Do the amount of coins I posses go up if I stay. Also, do I have to wait for the coins to go back to their original price that I bought fo in order to make a profit? What are the reasons to holding if prices are down? Thank-you.

Personally I always like to HODL eth. With alts I pick a price I would be happy selling at and if it reaches it I sell.

There are a lot of coins in my investment portfolio. And some of them have become cheaper, and some have grown significantly. I advise not to worry, because, all the Crypto currency is growing, even despite fluctuations

Its good that you have diversified your portfolio so that all eggs are not in one basket. A particular coin may flatter but investing in many coins will yield you good results provided you have invested in right coin. Also keep in mind that mostly value to altcoins depends upon btc, if btc moves up they also tend to move and other way around.

You are correct the only thing that I would add is that while bitcoin and altcoins tend to move in similar directions the speed at which they do is different, for example we saw bitcoin moving up in price but altcoins did not follow and that is why even if many altcoins kept the same price in dollars they were crashing in terms of bitcoin, however I think we are going to see altcoins moving up once again in a delayed move and then we are going to get prices similar to what we had a few months ago.

Yes, definitely this is the good time to hold bitcoin because this time bitcoin value is not literally stable, so it is the perfect timing to invest also. Otherwise, holding bitcoin is advisable due to all users were expecting of increasing price in the following months and years.
