Oversold Market Conditions

Definition

Oversold market conditions describe a technical analysis situation where an asset’s price has fallen sharply and is considered to be trading below its intrinsic value or recent historical averages. This state often suggests that selling pressure is exhausted, and a price rebound may be imminent. Indicators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) frequently signal these conditions when they drop below certain thresholds. Recognizing oversold conditions can indicate potential buying opportunities.
