BTU is the best play in the coal sector by far, because of its geographic scope and strategic focus on international sales. Coal prices are going up right alongside oil, and I expect BTU to continue rising for several years. In real life, I've bought in and out of this one more times than I can count. But every time I play that game, the stock breaks out of a channel and leaves ,e wishing i owned more. These are the stocks you want to stop channel trading and start holding for the long haul. I'd be very surprised if BTU doesn't reach $100 by the end of the decade.

I could not agree with you more. I just feel short term btu will trade toward the lower end of its channel before making another strong move up.
