The best candidate for now seem to be HitBtc, I believe they will be the first to support it just like they did with BCH. Keep an eye on this page for now, more exchanges will be added after the fork.

coinmarketcap link is good but since they are updating their lists with delays, specially when it comes to listing exchanges like this, I think it is not good enough for what OP wants. I remember they listed most of exchanges that had bitcoin gold market 1 day after the markets were actually active and people were dumping them already.

the list on BTG website was more complete though.
but since S2X doesn't have a website you need to stick to the news. and the announcements individual exchanges make.

@squatter:
Bitfinex is actually becoming bad for US players. At some point this month they are closing all US accounts. I'd get your money off of it if I were you.

Personally, I don't trade there. I got burned pretty bad when they got "hacked" last year, and don't trust their competence. I also think they have a target on their back from US regulators/law enforcement because they are an unlicensed money service business and because of their debt token scheme last year (unregistered securities).

That said, closing US accounts is just a technicality. Since they don't enforce any KYC anyway, you can just register a new account with a VPN. Just be careful to set up your VPN to prevent leaking your IP address and connect from outside of the US -- problem solved.

@MadGamer:
I signed up for a Hitbtc account. Let me get this straight, I can sell B2X before it is even released? Am I seeing this correctly?

Okay, let's pretend that the hardfork is coming and I want to dump my S2X fairly quickly. Which exchange would be the best for me. I am from the US. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

edit: oops meant to say B2X

It's unpredictable. Since there is no replay protection, each exchange will be employing their own dodgy internal replay protection to split the BTC they have in custody. Hopefully all goes smoothly for every exchange, but it should be assumed for any exchange that delays/complications could arise. The thing is, we have very little experience here. The exchange that performed best last time around (Bittrex) probably can't be expected to outdo everyone else again.

I would say if you are willing to keep your coins with a third party that your best bet at this time is Bitfinex. At least they have been very clear about how the fork will go down. Bittrex hasn't been forthright. Coinbase has promised full deposit/withdrawal/trading capabilities within a few days, but historically they are a bad exchange to use in these situations.
