As explained, you seem to have a lot of transactions into your wallet with very small amounts of bitcoin. When you go to send ALL of your bitcoins, you then need to include ALL of these inputs. Each input to a bitcoin transaction will use up around 148... each output is around 34 bytes... and there are some fixed bytes (around 10 bytes) per transaction.

So if you have 1 input and 1 output... your transaction will only be around 192 bytes... (148 + 34 + 10 = 192). Fees are calculated on a "per byte" basis... so if the wallet is setting a fee of say 100 sats/byte... you have 192 bytes... your fee will be 19200 sats (192 * 100).

However, in your case, you had TWELVE inputs... (12*148 = 1776 bytes  Shocked)... and 2 outputs (2*34 = 68)... so now your transactions is 1776 + 68 + 10 = 1854 bytes!  Shocked even with the same 100 sats/byte fee, your required fee is now 185,400 sats!

I also noted that on your transaction, you didn't actually send all the bitcoins to one address, you got "change" of 0.000029 BTC... what will happen now is that the next time you try to spend ALL your coins, you are going to have another ridiculously small amount of 2900 sats that will require an extra 148 bytes in a transaction... at 100 sats/byte, you would need to pay 14800 sats to send only 2900sats!! you see the issue???  Roll Eyes

The more tiny amounts you try to include, the higher the fee you're going to end up paying... so stop playing with dust amounts... don't receive them if you have a choice. If you need to consolidate them all, just accept that either you will have to pay a HUGE fee, or you can use a tiny fixed fee and wait for a week to get the transaction confirmed.

Block halving is coming.
I was disable the dynamic fees because the who wallet funds can not transfer all in other wallet address.. that is why i manually input a my own fee until now still pending and according to electrum history the fee is low..

Do you know some ways to stop sending or just reject the transaction so that i can make a new to send and increase the transaction  fee?
Its been 2 or 3 days that my transaction still not sent..

That's because of the very small amounts of btc you are trying to send... 5500 sats, 5100 sats, 6297 sats etc... Your transaction has 12 inputs and was over 1800 bytes... that makes it almost 9 times the size of a "standard" transaction...  Shocked Roll Eyes you need to stop accepting dust amounts of btc into your wallet or you will face the same issue every time you try to move your coins around.

If you didn't enable "Replace-by-Fee" (not even sure if that was available in 2.7.10), then your options are:

1. Wait... The transaction will confirm or be dropped from the mempool (Probably takes over 72 hours if no-one rebroadcasts your transaction)
2. Try and get a miner to include it (free: ViaBTC or Pay: the btc.com "push TX" feature or PM ther users macbook-air or Quickseller)
3. "Child Pays For Parent" - try and create a transaction that spends the unconfirmed output and that has a massive fee that results in an average fee of both transactions being ~200 sats/byte. Given how large your transaction is, it is going to need a fee of like 350,000+ satoshis (0.0035 btc)... assuming that it would only use 1 input.
What are honestly the causes why the size of my transaction are keep increasing if i use the old balance from my electrum wallet to get all my bitcoin and transfer to other wallet?

Honestly the transaction was solve because few hours ago i was trying and keep send my transaction link in viabtc after i succeed in submission i feel that my transaction will be solve.. and now my transaction are receive to other wallet. any way thanks  but i still want to know what are the causes of the price increase..

Block halving is coming.
I'm still halving issue.. even i use the viaBTC to accelerate my transaction still pending..
Its always happen every time i want to transfer almost all funds from my wallet to another wallet..

Check this transaction https://blockchain.info/tx/c1ad65d409c583d65cc84df556a168b3854ce948e22fc072c32cfbc7528dcb3c

I hope someone can help to push my transaction to sent..
And i hoping too if there is another accelerator to push my transaction..

That transaction has very low fee of only 27.15 sat/B . Based on your screenshot, you are running an outdated version of Electrum. Please update to the latest version and ensure that Dynamic Fees are enabled which will help ensure that good sized fees are used in the future.

For this transactions you will likely just have to wait for it to confirm. If you used ViaBTC and were able to get them to accelerate the transactions, it should definitely speed up the confirmation but you will likely still need to wait several hours for ViaBTC to find a block.

Guys can you help me for my electrum wallet because i receive  error when sending i experience of transaction send few days back but the transaction was rejected because of low fee now i change my electrum fee to dynamic to choose a good fee for my transaction but the result is error check the image below.

Hoping someone knows my issue thanks.
It would appear that your original transaction has not been dropped by the mempool yet... so the system thinks you are trying to double spend... what was the txid of the original transaction? If we can see that, we might be able to get a better idea of what the problem is... and see whether or not the original transaction has in fact been dropped.

ps. next time try and crop the screenshot... we don't need all the pretty blue background Wink
