The short term trend is neutral, while the long term trend is still negative. We need to see a little more continued positive action to make this really interesting.

UBX is one of the lesser performing stocks in the Biotechnology industry. 77% of 557 stocks in the same industry do better.
UBX is currently trading near the lower end of its 52 week range, which is not a good sign. Certainly not because the S&P500 Index is trading near new 52 week highs at the moment.
Volume is considerably higher in the last couple of days, which is what you like to see during a strong movement up.
In the last month UBX has a been trading in the 0.66 - 1.13 range, which is quite wide. It is currently trading in the middle of this range, so some resistance may be found above.
The technical rating of UBX is bad and it also does not present a 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.
