Bulls struggled to push Nifty above the 22,250 mark on a closing basis. Sentiment remains subdued as long as it stays below 22,250. A decisive move beyond this level could potentially propel Nifty towards 22,600 and beyond. Conversely, a failure to sustain above 22,200 might invite selling pressure in the market.Osho Krishan, Angel One
