If you use [counterwallet.io](http://counterwallet.io) webwallet then BTC to other exchange is not supported except you send a manual btcpay transaction command. If you use the [freewallet.io](http://freewallet.io) paid version then it is supported there.

Looks like your public address shows 3 orders which are still open and will expire after some days.

I exchange btc for xcp at other Exchanges like Bittrex or Poloniex.

Yes, exchange xcp elsewhere and send to counterwallet. But you still need some btc for transaction fees at counterwallet 0.00001 btc/kb for each order/transaction should be enough.
