As per my previous post a rebound to top of the upward trend channel would give 300p plus share price .....

Two weeks to the AGM - look at the curve on the chart - I say £3 by the AGM myself - got to be a banker with that chart don't you think?

Follow the lows upwards.

Green Datacentre to power London homes and businesses

Telehouse West will help meet the capital's ICT needs while reducing CO2 emissions and generating heat for the local community.

London – WSP Group and Telehouse Europe today announced that Telehouse West, a new £80 million state-of-the-art data centre, will transform generated waste heat into energy for the local Docklands community. The move will see Telehouse Europe mitigate the carbon footprint of its nine-storey, 19,000 square metre facility – Telehouse West in London's Docklands by exporting waste heat for use in nearby homes and businesses, a move which has received approval from the Greater London Authority.

Telehouse Europe is the first major data centre to gain planning permission in London since stringent sustainability requirements were written into the city's legislation. One of the reasons for the project's approval was the range of innovative green schemes Telehouse and the WSP Group, a London-based international sustainability and engineering consultancy, have put into action.

The partnership will see Telehouse West save up to 1,110 tonnes of CO2 emissions per annum and provide up to nine megawatts of power for the local neighbourhood. The energy savings will equate to boiling 3,000 kettles continuously. The disposal of waste heat from cooling systems is one of the most significant sustainability issues associated with data storage. This will be the first time a heat export strategy has been introduced in the UK for this type of data centre facility.

Commenting on the announcement Mr Bob Harris, Technical Services Director of Telehouse Europe, said: "We are very proud of the new £80 million Telehouse West facility, not only will it offer an innovative way to capture and repurpose waste heat, but the facility will also ease the capacity crunch. We recognise that any attempt to address the lack of space within the data centre industry has to be undertaken with a level of environmental awareness. By making good use of the waste heat from the facility, we can minimise the environmental impact of Telehouse West and provide a valuable resource to the local community."

Telehouse Europe's existing data centres in London and Paris were the first purpose-built colocation facilities to gain ISO 14001:2004, the internationally recognised standard for environmental management. Telehouse Operates a robust management framework to deliver continuous improvement in environmental performance – a key issue for the whole data centre industry.

Mr Kieran Rushe of Planning Consultants Dalton Warner Davis said: "This has been one of the fastest projects of this type of complexity from submission to award. At his Stage 2 planning assessment the Mayor recognised that the Telehouse proposal has the potential to mitigate the proposed development's contribution to the urban heat island effect and provide impetus for a district heat network in the area. The GLA said that the agreed solution represents the best possible outcome within the specific constraints of the scheme and accords with the objectives of London Plan policy 4A.6."

Martyn Bishop, Senior Technical Director at WSP Buildings, said: "Our multi-disciplinary team has worked on a solution which integrates various aspects of the new building to reduce its environmental impact considerably. It demonstrates that taking a holistic view pays dividends."

WSP Group prepared a detailed environmental impact assessment for the project and worked on the fire, acoustic, security, transport and VT engineering aspects of the project. FM is the Structural Engineer on the project. MACE is the main contractor for the 19,000 m2 building, which is due for completion in 2010.

Don't worry F.I. - There's plenty waiting to grab the dip - they'll pile in on the next rally imo - and that curve up on the chart just gets nicer imo.

[fast investor] 20/4/2009 11:26

[captain matthew] 17/4/2009 12:21

[fast investor] 17/4/2009 12:18

Strange how this one takes most of the morning to warm up and then springs into action in the afternoon.

[cockneyrebel] 17/4/2009 12:14

About to go positive for the afternoon imo.

Another bash at £+ soon imo.

At the moment the favoured support zone is the 10 day moving average level just below 260p, with the near term resistance line from last month promising at least 330p while above the 10 day moving average.

Yes, SWG seems to be going to 105-120p on that chart, I concur exactly.

IRV has momentum from the divi going xd next week for an 11.7 p divi.

HYC has some stock about, that's the time to buy it imo - very illiquid at other times and you miss your chance quickly. This looks so cheap to be being ignored in view of the recent tradin gstatement.

WSH - the chart's nailed on now, it turned around late in the day grom being 14 down to 7 down - this is going up tomorrow again imo.

All 4 above have had heavy director buying recently.

WHY - very weak director buying there - I'm a bit sceptical about buying this for that reason.

[chrisjg] 16/4/2009 17:49

CR - I am still holding off here for a while but feel I should warn you that I bought a few SWG and IRV today to keep some money in the market that just does not seem to want to go down.....probably until now that is :-)

SWG looks like it is making a break out and I hope it can continue to 105 to 120p in the short term. Although my buy was not as well timed as I would have liked. My stop buy order between 73 and 76 failed for some reason - so I took the plunge at the close for 80p. Although buying with such a high RSI goes against my general trading strategy the momentum seems to be on their side.

IRV - I liked the chart with the MACD turning up.

WSH doing a great job of defying gravity.....I am hoping for a target entry anywhere near 250p living in hope I get the chance.

Also nice to see my WHY add 100% on the day, I need many more days like that to recover my losses there though. I am beginning to think they may be a recovery play and perhaps I should add back a few having halved my holding at 19p.

all the best and happy trading Chrisjg
