Today January 25th at 10:30 EST (15:30 GMT) the Inventory figures from the U.S. Department of Energy were released. These follow from last night API figures were a big build on Crude came along with draws on Distillates and Gasoline. While there was little reaction to API last night, as it comes out quite late in the day, today's DOE figures did have a nice reaction. Crude Oil is the best to follow but Heating Oil and RBob Gasoline also will move on these figures. Heating Oil is best matched to Distillates and Gasoline to Gasoline of course. However the complex will move in sympathy to deviations accross the complex. Here the figures:

Here is the 1 minute chart of the Crude Oil Future. Despite the draw it rallied:
of course part of this was the fact that Crude had sold off heading into the news, here is the 5 minute chart of Crude heading into the release:
