The TechWizard likes to see divergence occurring at tops and bottoms. It helps him in determining when turning points are about to kick in.

Right now, he sees divergence forming on price charts for banks in Australia, such as Westpac ((WBC)). While this doesn't mean the shares will put in a rally today or tomorrow, it is likely a signal that a bottoming process is taking hold, reports the Wizard.

While the 20 moving average is still trending down, which is a negative, the Wizard report he starts to see value opening up in Westpac shares near $21 a piece.

The TechWizard is the pseudonym of Scott Morrison, whose experience in financial markets exceeds twenty years. Morrison operates his own website nowadays at www.techwizard.com.au. All views expressed are the TechWizard's, not FNArena's (see our disclaimer).
