I am also confused by this new hard fork. I am confused what may happen after that. I am thinking too much like what happened from the previous hard fork. I will be needing more time before making any decisions for this kind of serious issues.

But hoping for the better changes after this hard fork and hoping for the free coin to all of us.

To get free Bitcoin "gold", one just need to keep Bitcoins in exchange? Like for exemple did Kraken.com last time give Bitcoin Cash to all those who had Bitcoins? Relatively new in this world so don't know what happened in last fork. Or one need to keep them in particular bitcoin wallet to get free gold?

I am one of those people that is confused about this new fork and  the fact that I don't have any idea about this hard fork that may happen. I guess i need to keep my btc until this issue already done.

yes that is what you should do keeping your coins in your exchangers account to get free coins. During August splitting we see how most of the people that live their coins in exchangers sites get free coins I also got free coins from poloneix. Some also keep there bitcoin in some wallets and get free coins then.
It is not yet conform that either this time they are going to give extra coins or not. but i think that there is no need to confuse about holding bitcoin. i am too much sure that everything will be in favour of bitcoin. After hardfork it is also expected that the price will again boost and this time hopefully will cover 7000$. So holding bitcoin during hardfork will be not risky but will be more profitable.
Firstly there will be such situation in future if such kind of situation arise then holding is the best option for the investor this will avoid the chances to the loss and also there will be pump after that a lot of people will do panic selling in that time and if one has enough revenue at that time then hold that for some long term that will also be effective for the investors.

Ask the support team of your favorite/usually used exchange wallet if they do support the upcoming Bitcoin Gold and segwit2 forking. If not then it is in your decision to go offline with private key so you can have those free coin/money.

But as me, until now there is no email/announcement that my wallet support made for this coming fork but because they made refund on bitcoin cash and pay us in bitcoin, I’m more confident they will do the same and I don’t want to be hard on myself in making other options than trusting them.

It's all right if you leave your bitcoins to an exchanger as long as the exchanger has fully supported Bitcoin Gold. But if you are still worried then put this in Wallet that you control your private key. Like Coinomi Apps, Electrum wallet.
Thats the safest way that they can do if they have a lot of doubt in storing it on the exchange so for me that what i must gonna do also storing bitcoin on your wallet than on your exchange less worries for the holders.

You dude, just take it easy. There nothing wrong to keep bitcoins in exchange. Like previous fork, you might be memorized that every exchanger notified us by several message. My Bitcoin are hold on exchange and ready to get free gold.

It can also be stored in some wallets if you're feeling doubt, finding the right wallet in the moment wherein i can harvest some free coins too vefore fork, I rememver having bch before by just storing it on my wallet but tooks too lng to do the steps to acquired bch before.

Its really confusing for the fork because price of bitcoin is very quick to get down.Its too wasteful for the lose coins in every bitcoiners need to get their salary badly because they need money for their needs.They really need to cashout because this only provides for their needs.lts a favor to the bitcoin holders because l believe after the fork it will easily get unto a higher price.l experience it last segwit that about l get my salary just 2mos before segwit the price became 10 times.So l beleive after this fork bitcoin will surprise bitcoiners for the coming up level of bitcoin.

Any exchanger will give you official notice in this regard. I suggest you store Bitcoin in a big and famous exchanger like Bittrex and poloniex.
hopefully this happens like BCH and we get coins for free. Grin
And even if they don’t give official notice, just ask which is why the support is there. If they give their stand before the fork, you can at least be a bit guaranteed something good if everything goes right. Like you said, so many exchangers did this in the past and it sure did make a lot of traders make quick decision on their forked chain.

Just make sure you are willing to give up the safety of your funds for the quick forked chain that you will be receiving though. So that implies more risk!

It is upto your choice of keeping bitcoins in exchange or keeping them in hardware or desktop wallet. If you keep in exchange you can get the coins immediately or later but you have to do nothing. But it is risky also. If you keep in hardware or desktop wallet then you have to follow the steps to secure your bitcoins and then claim the Bitcoin Gold coins. So which one suits you that you can do it.

Fortunately or unfortunately, it does not seems there is going to be any fork so bothering or getting confused about it should not be a subject of discussion because less than 10 days to the day of the fork, no solid information yet on how to go about it. If it turn out that more information is coming out, we will all see as the forum is somewhere to get it. Rather than bothering yourself about that, its better to start aggregating the bitcoin in a wallet that there is absolute control without any compromise.

Maybe you should try to see on the bgold website, what exchanges already support them. Last time I checked, those two weren't there yet. Not saying they wont list it, but right now, we don't know if they will.

be careful where you check! there are a lot of fake websites out there claiming to be bitcoin gold's website. i saw one the other day which was asking for ICO funds to be paid to a certain address!

the real one is called BTCGPU.org and they just made the website today. and it has no mention of exchanges to trade this.

it is funny how their website says "transparency" and yet there is no mention of the premine!

if you scroll down pretty well now, they mentioned 3 exchanges so far supporting the forked chain (Yobit, bitbtc and bitstar). Apparently, they will keep updating as time goes on before the fork. At least they have information now unlike for some days that it has been pretty bleak. Let's see how things turn out. To me, it is just another BCC time!

Nothing to get confused, stay active and have trust over bitcoin. The rest happens good as that happened during the past splitting of bitcoin cash from the main chain. Price dip has been speculated much, same as that things happened and suddenly the price began to pump and caused a price dip for bitcoin cash and lead bitcoin grow continuously.
