The short term trend is positive, while the long term trend is still negative. So this is evolving in the right direction, but it may need some more time to really turn around the trend.

EPIX has an average technical rating and it also does not offer a high quality setup at the moment. Price movement has been a little bit too volatile to find a nice entry and exit point. It is probably a good idea to wait for a consolidation first.
