user64431: I had BTC before the BCH fork, but I forgot to claim the BCH and just spent all of the BTC on buying more BCH. Can I still claim the pre-fork BCH even though my wallet balance is now 0? It was stored in Electrum. Any advice is appreciated.

user51948: Despite your bitcoin wallet balance being 0, your cash balance on the same address should be non-zero. Check that with a cash blockchain explorer and then import your private keys into a cash wallet to access the coins.
