Ok so here's the thing

I have a few bitcoins on btce.com and a few on a [Suspicious link removed] wallet and I've noticed the price dropped really fast the last week.
Me being a newbie and didn't quite know what was going on read something about segwit and hardfork
I learned that it would be wise not to leave the bitcoins on btce but store them somewhere else.
Is blockchain a good wallet to store the coins in during the hardfork? Or should I get another wallet?
When the coin splits I obviously want to end up with both the old an the new coin of course.

Or does someone maybe have a better idea what I should do with them?

It's not a whole lot in total, it's about 0.15 BTC or so

The best solution may be to transfer those coins to a wallet you control like an offline wallet. It should be a wallet where you have the private keys. Generally be careful with exchanges that hold your coins but especially when there is a fork. I don't know if there would be a problem but you should be aware that most experts are saying to be careful.
