Launching the official WhatsApp page, there is no way provided by WhatsApp to hide when you are online or typing. You can only choose not to share the last seen timestamp which keeps you from seeing other users' last seen timestamps.
If you turn off read receipts, you won't be able to view other users' read receipts either. Meanwhile, you won't be able to see if the contact has seen your status update if a contact has turned off read receipts.
