The failure of a transaction is completely dependent on the network congestion. If the network is congested, you'll have to pay higher gas fees. As of my writing, the recommended gas price is 10 Gwei so if you had made a transaction with 4, then it most likely fails. Always use ethgasstation.info (http://ethgasstation.info) to know the recommended gas price.

Most likely you didn't pay enough gas to cover the transaction cost due to congestion.  Like the guy above me said, check that website for current gas prices so you don't waste your time.

I think it is good for transaction in ethereum due to the fees transaction to be more cheap in ethereum's platform, i don't know what do you mean with something wrong in ethereum transaction.

the possibility of error in the transaction is a network problem, it should be before doing a better transaction in the first check the network, the incident I also had experienced when running trading.

Yes, there was an issue, so I prefer visit https://ethgasstation.info/ (https://ethgasstation.info/) before doing a transaction.
