The market staged a rebound after significant correction from record highs, but its sustainability will be tested in coming sessions. If Nifty 50 corrects, it may try to take support at 21,900, the low of the last big bearish candle (May 9), also coinciding with a rising support trendline. However in case of further recovery, it may face a hurdle at 22,200-22,300 levels, experts said.

On May 10, the Nifty 50 traded within the previous day's range, and jumped 98 points to close at 22,055, forming a bullish candlestick pattern with minor upper & lower shadows on the daily charts, while the BSE Sensex rose 260 points to 72,664.
