Equity Long in GDX / NUGT (Gold Miners)

For an equity position, I still want some leverage so I chose NUGT which is 3x long GDX. I think this may have a better chance for a longer trend, thus I don't think I need the same amount of leverage.

 NUGT 2 min

NUGT 5 min

15 min

And even positive 30 min, thus the possibility of a longer trend looks better here.
