The International Consolidated Airlines Group (IAG) share price took a dip of 1.99% today, trading at 208.1p, down from its recent high of 210.6p. This pullback follows an impressive rally over the past several weeks as investor enthusiasm has surged around IAG due to the current transatlantic travel boom.
The chart reveals significant support and resistance levels that could guide traders in the coming days. Immediate support lies at 201.1p, a critical threshold that has held through the last correction, while major resistance sits at 212.4p. Should IAG breach this resistance, it could unlock further upside potential, especially considering the strong momentum it has shown recently.
If IAG slips below the 201.1p level, attention could shift to the next significant support at 187.65p, a zone that could attract sellers looking to capitalize on the downward trend.
Several factors have contributed to IAG’s strong performance in recent months. A key driver is the recovery in transatlantic travel, particularly with British Airways and Iberia—two major IAG brands—seeing higher passenger volumes as travel restrictions have eased. Moreover, IAG is also benefiting from an upcoming rare golden cross pattern on the daily chart, often a strong technical indicator of further upward momentum.
Even with a small drop today, IAG continues to be a top performer in the airline industry, with analysts optimistic about its future prospects.
