Note again you will receive 1:1 BCH for every BTC you own (e.g. now: 5.3 BTC after: 5.3 BTC and 5.3 BCH).
but you must have access to your bitcoin private keys through
- a paper wallet
- your seed into a hardware wallet or
- holding your bitcoin on a exchange or online wallet that is supporting bitcoin cash. Many such as Coinbase are not.
