Converting should not be in the option now, as we see the market isn't good state now so better hold, once you convert it there's no turning back your investment already lose.
The market isn't so good for altcoins and if someone converted his bitcoins for altcoins, he's now regreting.
Why would you sell your precious bitcoins for altcoins that are just depending to btc?
You can buy altcoins if you want but don't exchange it for something that has lower value.
