1RXS J053234.9+624755: rapid fading? still active?

We observed 1RXS J053234.9+624755, which was in a 
superoutburst since 7 Jan. 

20070123.71188 14.86V 0.04 Higashi-Hiroshima Observatory

You can see the light curve at:

The object was still above its quiescent level (V=17-18). 
Since the V-J color was quite red (V-J~1.0), the object was 
probably in a rapid fading phase from the superoutburst. 
In this case, the duration of the outburst is ~15 days.
