ETH isn’t done. It’s just hunting stops.

This isn’t a dump. This is preparation.

ETH swept the low into the 0.786 retracement — right where liquidity was resting. The 1H chart shows an engineered drive down into 2,490.26, just above the final inefficiency at 2,474.00. That’s the last fill zone before repricing.

Look left — we’re now sitting at the tail end of a low-volume node. Price doesn’t stick here. It reacts.

I’m watching for a shift back into the 2,503–2,512 zone, where the 0.5 retracement overlaps the 1H OB. That’s the first stop. Beyond that, 2,520.97 marks the high-volume shelf and the 0.382 retrace — the true magnet.

If ETH reclaims that zone with strength, I expect delivery back to 2,550. If not, expect one more purge below 2,474 — and then the real reversal begins.

Execution logic:

🎯 Long trigger: 2,490.26–2,474.00 sweep

🧠 TP 1: 2,512 (OB/50% retrace)

🧠 TP 2: 2,520.97–2,532 (HVA zone)

❌ Invalidation: clean 1H close below 2,474 = new range forming

This is where most traders hesitate.

I don’t guess the bottom. I wait for Smart Money to make it.
