Show significant 1-day drops\n\nLet me score them:\n\nBest candidates for mean reversion (oversold with potential to bounce):\n\n1. **BPT_CFD.UK**: -7.5% from MA50, -11.5% from MA200, -5.9% 1-day change, 77.7% volatility - GOOD\n2. **BFAM_CFD.US**: -13.6% from MA50, -23% from MA200, -3.8% 1-day change, 50.5% volatility - GOOD\n\n\n3. **BYIT_CFD.UK**: -13.7% from MA50, -27.2% from MA200, -9.9% 1-day change, 86.4% volatility - GOOD but high volatility\n4. **AJG_CFD.US**: -5.8% from MA50, -18.1% from MA200, -2.8% 1-day change, 59.1% volatility - GOOD\n5. **BRO_CFD.US**: -6.6% from MA50, -21.5% from MA200, 2.8% 1-day change, 57.5% volatility - Mixed signals\n\nContinuing my analysis, I'm seeing some nuanced patterns in the data. The BYIT_CFD.UK stands out with its significant price drop and substantial distance from moving averages, which could indicate a strong mean reversion potential.

I'll need to cross-reference these observations with additional market indicators to validate these initial findings.
