They told us coinbase users to move the funds prior to the fork. I did to electrum. If i move the coins back to coinbase will I have the equal amount of bitcoin cash still.
Not at all.You are too late.You should have transformed your bitcoins to any other exchange which supports BCC like bittrex.Now,you have no chance of getting free BCC.Don't worry much about that as you have not lost any potential coin and its only a shit altcoin.Its price is decreasing very fast and soon it may just disappear.
No at all, he is not too late as you can still claim your BCC by following the advise on the forum the
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2059111.0 is the official release and since you are using electrum, then you are good to go but the difficulty is how you will be able to transfer it to the exchange site.
From the look of things except something drastic that will push the price of BCC high, with the current trend I doubt if it will be able to hold the fort pending the time Coinbase will come on board.
