It depends but often cheapest prices IME are;
1) as the flight is released (e.g a year in advance or more)
or
2) about 5 weeks out.

I waited till the second to last day and the price was 240, one day later it hit 200. (definitely a gamble, the flight seemed maxed out when I was boarding).
If they haven’t been able to sell the seat yet, the airline is in a big hurry.
If they have sold almost all the seats, the last 1-2 will often be crazy expensive though.
High risk.
