You are lucky to have not invested, ICO is not looking good right now to many scam to many price dump and to long wait to see if you made a profit or not, newbie coming in should take heed people's advice on the best platform to invest and right now it's not ICO, IEO seems a good platform to invest in a new project.
For people who first want to invest in ICO, I think it will be very difficult to get a good project. I might prefer to invest in coins that are definitely on the market, it will reduce the risk.
