Yes, there are actually 2 forks happening within the next month. Bitcoin Gold (BTG) should happen sometime next week and Bitcoin Segwit2x (B2X) should happen around mid-November.

All you have to do is make sure that you have your bitcoins in a wallet where you have access to your private keys at the time of those 2 forks, with a warning.

The warning is that you should be careful about moving your coins around the time of the fork, as they could lead to the other coins (BTG & B2X) being moved as well (you can imagine the coins as initially being "stuck together").

You should wait for news and announcements by the devs, stating that the chains are all stable, before moving your coins.

Is there still no word on replay protection from the Bitcoin Gold developers? Now that I think about it, is there even code that is publicly available yet? It seems like they are setting themselves up for failure with the lack of preparedness and publicity. Maybe that's the point -- get everyone sick and tired of these forks, which reinforces the notion that the legacy chain is the true Bitcoin, and that the hard forks are just altcoins. Roger Ver must be pretty worried right now...
