## Quick Answer

Oversold plus structure. When sellers exhaust and buyers step in, RSI extremes mark the turn.

## What is RSI?

The Relative Strength Index tracks the speed and magnitude of recent price changes on a 0-100 scale. Readings below 30 are "oversold" — sellers have pushed hard and momentum is exhausted. Readings above 70 are "overbought." Oversold isn't a buy signal by itself — but oversold + structure is one of the cleanest mean-reversion setups in trading.

## Why It Works

Extreme RSI readings reflect capitulation. When sellers have sold everything they planned to sell, buyers step in. Price reverses from the extreme, and traders who identify the exhaustion get the best entries.

## How to Trade Them

Wait for a sharp drop that pushes RSI oversold (below 30), then look for rejection — a wick below support with a close back above. That's your entry candle. In this drill, you're selling the final breakdown candle as the reversal forms. Hit SELL close to the oversold extreme.

## Your Mission

Identify the exhaustion. Hit SELL at the oversold extreme. Precision wins.
