It was ranging on daily.
In the hourly it was overbought.

Shouldn't the buying be when it crosses above RSI 50 on hourly?

probably 3 reasons:-

1) Price action in the impulse leg (up trend) before the formation of a trading range is very choppy.
2) BO happened from the low of the trading range. low probability BO.
3) about point 2 there is no build-up before BO. Build-up broadly means tight price consolidation before BO.
