    Last time i bought, I had put a stop on broken downtrend line. But it went down through that line and now is bouncing back up.

    Where would you put a new stop?

    Or sell a call.

    I like BTU as a longer term story but in the shorter term I can argue the $24 level to be resistance.  BTU has seemed to respect its 20 and 50 daySMA's which it is taking both out today so I would like to see those start to become support but you can also argue for a close below $20.16 which is the recent lows and will end up being the low for the weekly candle.

    I don't know how much you have but my personal way (cannot advise) would be to start taking some profits on a portion of the position here (1/3-1/2) and then since I have locked in some gains I feel comfortable not using the 20 and 50 MA's as stops and instead will use the $20.16 recent lows.
