Ethereum (ETH) has been <\/span>under heavy selling pressure<\/span><\/a> in recent weeks, leaving many retail investors uncertain about when to enter the market. However, Lingrid, <\/span>a TradingView crypto expert,<\/span> has stepped in, pinpointing an area she calls a \u201cKill Zone,\u201d which reveals the most ideal entry point for traders looking to buy ETH at the best possible price before the next major move higher.<\/span><\/p>\n On May 20, Lingrid <\/span>shared<\/span><\/a> a new TradingView analysis of the Ethereum price, outlining what she believes is <\/span>the ideal buy zone<\/span><\/a> for investors and traders looking to accumulate during the current market dip.<\/span><\/p>\n According to the expert, ETH recently broke down sharply from a \u201cprimary shaded wedge pattern,\u201d highlighted on her accompanying chart. She noted that the breakdown had triggered a massive leverage flush, pushing ETH\u2019s price down to $2,070. She added that the move has done its job by clearing out <\/span>overleveraged positions<\/span><\/a> and paving the way for ETH to potentially stage a fresh recovery.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n Lingrid further pointed out that Ethereum\u2019s price has held firm right above a long-term rising macro support line, which she sees as confirmation that a structural bottom is in place. Based on this, her <\/span>recovery roadmap for ETH<\/span><\/a>, indicated by the purple arrow on the chart, targets a clean reclaim of the broken structure, reaching $2,300.<\/span><\/p>\n Notably, Lingrid has <\/span>warned of a potential trap<\/span><\/a> ahead for traders who short this breakdown. She said that retail investors are already <\/span>panic-selling<\/span><\/a> the recent broken wedge boundary without noticing the major macro rising trendline sitting just below it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n She also observed that institutional investors are quietly using ETH\u2019s $2,100 liquidity zone to <\/span>accumulate spot Ethereum ETFs<\/span><\/a> at a significantly lower price, preparing to trap late short sellers once prices move back up. For traders looking to enter the market, Lingrid places her ideal Ethereum buy zone between $2,100 and $2,135. She described this accumulation area as the cryptocurrency\u2019s \u201cKill Zone\u201d and set a stop-loss at $2,040 for those managing risk in the trade.<\/span><\/p>\n In her analysis, Lingrid noted that her primary price target for Ethereum is a potential move toward $2,300, which aligns with the upper internal trendline on her chart. She believes ETH\u2019s momentum and setup are strong enough to push its price to that level in a relatively short period.<\/span><\/p>\n On the more technical side, Lingrid noted that as of Wednesday, May 20, 2026, <\/span>Ethereum mainnet gas fees<\/span><\/a> had dropped to a 12-month low of 3 gwei, following a successful optimization patch tied to <\/span>the Pectra upgrade<\/span><\/a>. She argued that this development adds a fundamental layer of support to her bullish outlook.<\/span><\/p>\nAnalyst Flags Ethereum Kill Zone As Prime Buy Area\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n
