Pre-Market Experts' View: Nifty Showing Early Signs Of Bearish Trend

"The RSI is hovering in the 55–60 range, comfortably away from overbought levels but flashing early signs of bearish divergence, as prices make higher highs without equivalent strength in momentum. First support lies near 24,850, where the EMAs converge with the lower trendline. A decisive break below this may open the door to 24,700–24,600, while a deeper fall towards 24,300 cannot be ruled out if 24,600 is breached."
