Have some experience monitoring this, but was last Jan and JFK-LAX so many not apply. In my experience, prices are fairly high until about a month out and then, assuming a fair amount of seats remaining, prices will start to come down. But even on JFK-LAX this usually only happens for early morning and late night flights. Prices may be well into the $1,000+ range but a couple of flights will usually drop to $759 with a couple of weeks before departure. Of course, waiting for this you risk the flight booking and the price not dropping.

I suggest setting up Google flight tracking so you can monitor.
