  Ok
  
  so
  go into the instance of the actor(click on the actor IN the scene, not the actors folder)
  
  make 1 rule
  
  when self position x = (whatever the position is at the time(look in the attributes of the actor to find it))
  
  interpolate self position x to wherever you want it to go on the x axis
  
  OTHER WISE(check the otherwise drop down arrow)
  
  (drag another rule in)
  
  when self.postion x = (whatever you just changed it to)
  
  interpolate to (back to the original x position)
  
  and the duration is how fast
  
  small duration is quick
  large is slow
  
  hope that helps

  I'd take a simpler route: place the actor you want to bounce back in forth between two invisible walls, if the object hits a wall change it's velocity to -velocity
