What the fk, there is a user who said that you are going to receive 10 btg per every bitcoin that you own, this is false mate, you are only going to receive the same convertion than before, 1;1, not more and not less.
And yes, if you keep them on a safe exchange you will probably receive the btg that you diserve, but maybe a few days later because exchanges need a lot of time to make the right distribution.
But if you hold them on your wallet you are going to receive them too.

Usually it´s the other way around. The way to guarantee you get the fork coins is by controlling the private keys in your own wallet. However some exchanges make early announcements about these forks. For instance bitfinex already took position about the Segwit2 fork. Not sure what the position is from the exchanges about BTC gold.
What people expect price of BTC Gold to be? Did price of bitcoin tank as soon as Cash was given as free last time? Or its better to buy more alt coins now that they are way down because people are moving to bitcoin.
And now people keep the BTC until 25/10 to receive the BTG on 1/11 with a ratio of 1: 1. (To the present it can be seen that the BTC will be split up again and that has been confirmed by the leaders at Bitmain and F2Pool.)
Specifically: 1 BTC = 10 BTG
BTG = Bitcoin Gold Also known as Bitcoin GPU.
It is not strange that people sell Altcoins and keep Btc making Bitcoin rise constantly!
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?
You shouldn't really hold your bitcoins in a exchange in order to get bitcoingold, because you simply don't know if the exchange will accept the new coin or not. With bitcoin cash I think things went well for most users, but those that did not hold their private keys were at risk of net getting any coins for the fork. I think you should transfer your coins to a wallet, where you own your private keys. This way you know you will get the bgold for sure.
I just want to learn that when this Bitcoin Gold will be available for Buying and Seling on the markets such as Bittrex and Poloniex.
I don't think they have announced it yet. 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.

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.

Recently Bittrex give's the BCH to the people who have btc balance to their account but what I would suggest more is to store on the wallet who's been secured by private keys since this is more recommended by the people and speculator since this is the most safest thing we do before the hardfork comes.

You should secure your btc with the wallet who's have a privatekey like electrum so that you can get your bitcoin gold but if you are looking for the past hardfork happening you can visit some good article site like cointelegraph and other active sites related unto that today.
Hardfork is little bit far away to be happen and you still have some few days to prepare with it and remember bring or grab some BTC so that you can get that crypto when the fork is happening.

ONLY IF the exchange you are keeping your coins in promises to support the fork and also promises to credit your new coins to you after the fork if you keep coins there. not all exchanges do this so make sure you check it out.
for example i remember asking c-cex about BCH and they said they will not support it so i made a withdrawal.

nothing special really. BCH forked from bitcoin and created an altcoin. some people got their BCH tokens out and enjoyed the free money, some others are still holding it because they have hope and some never bothered to claim it.
the "particular wallet" you need to keep your coins to get any futuristic fork new coins will ALWAYS be a wallet that you are the only one who has access to the private keys.
the exchange enjoy the free money, I'm still reading things about this new coins and waiting for exchange to make their stand making sure that if free
btc gold will be distributed I can have mine.

Just leave it with trading paltform that support new forking.
You can just trade it right away later.
You dont have to make new wallet and making a new chain.
It is easier

You could have your own wallet in your own dedicated system/laptop.
You could leave it in a supported trading platform,
I think this is the best,
you ll not require to do things and it is just done,.... you can buy more with your coin right at that place or HODL.
I choose this one.
