AIQ - Alliance HealthCare Services - $0.85
FUNDAMENTALS
Institutional ownership is rather high. Percentage of shares held by all insider and 5% owners: 7%. Percentage of shares held by institutional & mutual fund owners: 83%. Percentage of float held by institutional & mutual fund owners: 89%. (You and I can quibble over the remaining 11%.) Number of institutions holding shares: 64 according to Nasdaq, and 60 according to Yahoo Finance.
Top five holders are Oaktree Capital Management, Michael R. Murphy, Brigade Capital Management, Ameriprise Financial, and General Electric. (I guess G.E. needs something to do, now that they've abandoned their appliance business).
Insider sales outnumber purchases 6 to 7 over the last 12 months.

VOLUME: 2.76mil shares, up 2,375% compared to typical daily volume over the past 6 months.
High Volume alert!
Typical daily volume was only 147.2k shares over the past 6 months.
Time frame being considered: Longer term hold.
TECHNICALS
Here's the setup.
Above: Static monthly chart, with markups.
Let's take a closer look at the targets.
Above: Static 8 month daily chart displays Nasdaq Stock Consultant's Rallybands(r), short and long targets, pivot points, moving average targets, etc. Note steady decline.
Let's take a closer look at where resistance is with Bollinger bands, so that we know what we may anticipate.
Above: Static hourly chart displays rather typical price action. Price penetrates the outer boundary, it reverts to the mean. Now channeling downward with EMA 20 and the inner average contained in the Bollinger Bands serving as resistance..
Now, let's look at some dynamic (self-updating) charts.
Above: Dynamic daily chart. Note the pair of intraday volatility spikes prior to the decline. Price is still in a pronounced downtrend. Note high volume selling frenzy.
Above: Dynamic Stockharts.com daily view. Chart includes an EMA envelope. RSI & MACD are not looking very promising, at this time.
Above: Stockcharts weekly. Note the price decline, and the steady drop in accumulation, suggesting a true bottom may be in the making.
