I've played 3 online chess tournaments and I have never placed high in any of them, and I was wondering If I should join online tournaments at my level? And if I shouldn't join online tournaments then when should I?

Most online tournaments cost nothing. Why not play them?

well when there is a long period of time between the games where you can't play any new games (after you analyze your last game), it wastes time you could use to practice.
