After a crazy week of of extreme volatility in the stock market, we have a relatively quiet market this week. In addition to that, it is also a shortened trading week thanks to Easter Friday.

That explains a lot why Thursday was relatively quiet and stuck in range.
Next week, it will be a lot more complicated thanks to earning reports from Tesla on Tuesday, Japan tariff negotiators left US without any sign of progress over the weekend, etc.
Bears are all focusing on the potential of a melt down scenario while the bulls believe that the correction can be over anytime soon.

Happy Easter!
