Overbought and oversold are just simple ways to describe when a stock price has moved too much, either too high or too low.
A stock is overbought when:
Too many people are buying it
The price has gone up too fast
It may soon come down (price drop)
For Example:
Like when a bag of rice suddenly jumps too high in price, people will stop buying, and price may fall.

A stock is oversold when:
Too many people are selling
The price has dropped too much
It may soon go up (price rise)
For Example:
Like when tomatoes are too cheap in the market, people rush to buy, and price can rise again.
Here is my Advice:
Overbought = be careful (price may fall)
Oversold = look closely (may be opportunity)
But don’t just jump in, always understand why the price moved.
and Buy when value is low, not when noise is high.
