To do any transaction in EtherDelta now we have to higher the gas. Sometimes it is never executing that until we increase the gas to 50 gwei. This is around 5 USD. This is big cost for small transactions. Do you know any best practices we need to follow when doing deposit, withdraw and trades in EtherDelta (specially in these days)?

In reality, there's nothing you could do if you want to trade.

Lower gas == More waiting for transaction confirmation. I found this site for checking the right gas price https://ethgasstation.info.

I think you can not do anything too with etherdelta. If not increase the gas price, you might ending with failure transaction but you still have to pay the gas. Double fail.

It is best to use some semi-decentralised exchange like DEX and others that are on their way. Many of the ED problems are solved by this next generation.
Etherdelta is operational once again but yet I haven't tried out to comeback on using their site once again since ive been using IDEX and ForkDelta nowadays which is similar to etherdelta but I find it way much better than them when I do try to trade or sell up erc20 tokens. Going back to topic on how to set up gas on etherdelta then it just like MEW where you can find top-right about gas limit.You can edit it according to your preference.
