From the fundamental perspective, the situation with Saudi Arabia along with Trump and OPEC butting heads helps volatility and makes this market a bit "jumpy". If you are a longer term trader, try to avoid the intraday noise. While driving season is over and we are now entering the "heating season", which is more applicable for heating oil, the overall energy sector is currently volatile.
