So far, the market is meeting that expectation with one and half week left in the month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"041425Summary\">Bears want to close the month as bearish as possible, minimally below the bar&#8217;s midpoint around 18250, and the bull body gap of December 2021 close at 18503. Bulls want the opposite. These should be magnets for the rest of the month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">NASDAQ 100 Emini futures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The <em>Weekly<\/em> NASDAQ chart<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/NASDAQ-Weekly-Sideways-MoveLikely-for-Rest-of-April-2025.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/NASDAQ-Weekly-Sideways-MoveLikely-for-Rest-of-April-2025-680x383.jpg\" alt=\"Nasdaq Weekly Sideways Move Likely for Rest of April 2025\" class=\"wp-image-235070\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/NASDAQ-Weekly-Sideways-MoveLikely-for-Rest-of-April-2025-680x383.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/NASDAQ-Weekly-Sideways-MoveLikely-for-Rest-of-April-2025-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/NASDAQ-Weekly-Sideways-MoveLikely-for-Rest-of-April-2025-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.brookstradingcourse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/NASDAQ-Weekly-Sideways-MoveLikely-for-Rest-of-April-2025.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The week is inside bear trend bar with a prominent tail below.
