What the rsi oversold bounce is

RSI fell below 30, then climbed back above it. Selling may be tiring.

Stretch a rubber band far and it wants to snap back. RSI is a gauge from 0 to 100 that shows how hard price has been pushed up or down lately. Below 30 means price was pushed down very hard, and climbing back above 30 hints the selling may be tiring.
