American, like many other airlines, has suffered a pilot shortage, causing many of its planes to sit parked, despite a huge demand for travel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"core-block\">The deal, which was ratified without a vote due to huge support from American Airlines&#8217; union executive board, means pilots early in their career will start with an annual salary of about $ 90,000 compared to just $ 18,000 per year a decade ago.<\/p>\n<p class=\"core-block\">While the news may help American Airlines get more planes in the air, it didn&#8217;t impress <strong class=\"core-block\">Barclays<\/strong> analyst <strong class=\"core-block\">Brandon Oglenski<\/strong>, who on Tuesday morning maintained an Underweight rating on the stock and lowered the price target from $ 20 to $ 17.  The lowered price target suggests about 30% upside potential for the stock.<\/p>\n<p class=\"core-block\"><strong class=\"core-block\">American Airlines could bounce up to $ 16.73 and still remain in the downtrend that the stock has been trading in since May 27, when American Airlines printed a double top pattern at $ 18.21.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"core-block\"><em class=\"core-block\">Want direct analysis?

The most recent lower high was formed on June 7 at $ 16.73 and the most recent lower low was created at the $ 15.96 level on that same day.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"core-block\">&#13;<\/p>\n<li class=\"core-block\">On Tuesday, American Airlines opened slightly higher to start the trading day with an inside bar pattern but quickly broke down from Monday&#8217;s mother bar and briefly fell below the $ 13 mark. <strong class=\"core-block\">As of press time, bulls were attempting to buy the dip near $ 13 and if the bulls continue to defend that level as support, the stock may print a hammer candlestick on the daily chart, which could indicate a bounce is in the cards for Wednesday.<\/strong><\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li class=\"core-block\">A bounce is also likely to come because American Airlines&#8217; relative strength index (RSI) reached about 30% on Tuesday.  When a stock&#8217;s RSI reaches or falls below that level it becomes oversold, which can be a buy signal for technical traders. <strong class=\"core-block\">When the stock&#8217;s RSI fell to the 25% level on March 7, American Airlines rallied a whopping 66% between that date and April 21.<\/strong><\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li class=\"core-block\">Bearish traders will want to see American Airlines close the trading day below $ 13, which will cause the stock to print a bearish Marubozu candlestick and indicate lower prices are likely to come on Wednesday.  If that happens, the bounce may not come until later in the week.<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li class=\"core-block\">American Airlines has resistance above at $ 13.36 and $ 14.88 and support below at $ 11.22 and $ 9.90.<\/li>\n<p>&#13;\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"core-block\"><em class=\"core-block\">See Also: 10 Biggest Price Target Changes For Tuesday<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"core-block\"><em class=\"core-block\">Photo: <\/em><em class=\"core-block\">Edu Perez via Shutterstock<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>American Airlines Group, Inc AAL was falling more than 2% on Tuesday after declining 20% \u200b\u200bbetween June 7 and Monday.
