BA - Looks to Breakout Above Descending Channel

BA is currently in a well-established descending channel that's part of an underlying uptrend. And it seems ready to breakout past the channel's resistance. It is worth noting that BA has experienced similar descending channels twice before and price resolved higher and continued upwards both times. In this case we should be looking to enter long right after a breakout and hold until price faces a notable level of resistance - taking a conservative standpoint, I think this resistance will occur at the $257 level. Place your stops right below entry, if former resistance doesn't turn into support, the trade premise will be invalidated.

Considering that omicron has peaked in many countries and as border restrictions ease around the world, we could see another bullish period for travel. Technicals of other travel stocks also look quite strong while health care stocks look weak(er). We could see bulls take control of the travel sector in the coming weeks.
