Not a good day for trend followers so far. Guy I follow on twitter (coolbizone) went long ES for 24 cars, dumped when he was down a point, then bought back. He is a multi day swing trader. There is a fancy German word for why that makes you feel better about yourself that I can't spell.
DOE just confirmed the API inventory numbers from yesterday, looks like the tankers unloaded and the refineries are stepping up their game, builds across the board.
That should be end of bad news for oil for a couple of days. If you are betting on Saudi jaw bone power they will have an algo ripper before today is over if they are following the usual game plan. Afterall they knew this inventory report would happen. It was the "inadvertent" tanker unloading schedule last week that was the aberration from the seasonal data trend.
Problem for bears is that there are now suddenly numerous support levels for the major indexes, upon any level of decline.
Problem for bulls is the length of the bull market, which has already discounted in advance most of this tepid economic recovery. Valuations are stretched.

/NG and /DX also reverse, just like yesterday into the night but only back up in the morning. /DX is two days in a roll, this time if we head down in the night I don't think it will come back up this time.
