Technical analysis of stocks, commodities, traffic movements, and the like, which is based on logical study, sound data, and experience, is not considered divination or fortune-telling. Divination is foretelling future unseen matters and claiming knowledge of secrets, whereas analysis is an expectation built upon logical data and premises.
