Any bitcoins (BTC) held in your Bitcoin wallet at the time the fork occurs will grant you an equal amount of BTG. This applies only if you have access to the private keys of your wallet, so no exchange wallets apply.
Although the fork will occur on October 25, exchanges are likely to only open Bgold for trading one week later on November 1. This allows time for technical issues to be resolved by all participants.
Right now, no clear instructions are available for how to split your BTC from your BTG. Exchanges and software/hardware wallets are still deciding on whether they’ll support this fork.
If you participated in the Bitcoin Cash split, the procedure will be similar—though likely smoother, as exchanges and wallets have had practice and more preparation time. As always, the most important thing to do is safeguard your Bitcoin private keys, as BTC’s value is far higher than BTG’s.

I will wait till there's an official announcement from the developers from Bitcoin Gold. If anything it would be the same as claiming Bitcoin Cash...We just have to use another wallet.
Thanks anyway.

Now there is more awareness about how the fork works, and different from the panic generated prior to BCash when people wouldn't know was going to happen and bitcoin dropped to $1880, people and exchanges are aware and more prepared, I even received an email from an exchange stating that they will support the fork and issue the same amount of BGold in a different wallet automatically at the fork (Brasiliex), and probably this will become the trend the next few days.
