Great Western Bancorp - Chart of the Day

Great Western Bancorp (GWB) is the Barchart Chart of the Day.  The mid-western commercial bank has a Trend Spotter buy signal, a Weighted Alpha of 40.70+ , gained 33.75% in the last year and paid a 1.85% dividend.

The Chart of the Day belongs to Great Western Bancorp (GWB).  I found the mid-western bank stock by using Barchart to sort today's All Time High list first for the most frequent number of new highs in the last month , then again for technical buy signals of 80% or better. Next I used the Flipchart feature to review the charts for consistency.  Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 3/4 the stock gained 18.38%.
