I personally keep my BTS in the BitShares client wallet found here: http://bit.ly/kimchi-king
The wallet just got a whole lot easier to create, but make sure you save your password and don't lose it no matter what.
The exchange has what you need to execute trades. It does require some getting used to, but it's pretty similar to the Poloniex interface.
Thanks. I’ll take a look. I briefly looked into the exchange some time ago but was looking at the desktop client. I found it a bit difficult to use and all coins seemed to be at a premium so cheaper elsewhere. I’ll take another look, especially as btc is powering ahead and everything else is dropping off. Real discount to be had.
