According to the American Institute of CPAs,
>Section 4, Q&A-1 of Notice 2014-21 states that “general tax principles applicable to property transactions apply to transactions using virtual currency,” which is guidance that is generally helpful in determining the tax consequences of most virtual currency transactions. However, if there are particular factors that distinguish one virtual currency as like-kind to another virtual currency for section 1031 purposes, the IRS should clarify these details (e.g., allowing the treatment of virtual currency held for investment or business as like-kind to another virtual currency) in the form of published guidance. Similarly, taxpayers need specific guidance of special rules or statutory interpretations if the IRS determines that the installment method of section 453 is applied differently for virtual currency than for other types of property.
so if you're trading altcoins that don't exchange directly into fiat, it's a like-like exchange tha doesn't create a tax event, but capital gains apply once when u cash out from BTC to fiat.
But if you're speculating in something with a direct USD-Coin exchange like BTC, eth or LTC, those trades might qualify as capital gains tax events

I've heard that if you trade from a crypto to fiat, but keep the fiat in the exchange, it isn't taxable until you send it to your bank account?

Not sure, I think it depends where the exchange is located, I'd definitely declare it during tax season if the exchange is located in the US though.
