What are good ways to look at futures?


What are some good ways to look at futures for various indexes and commodities, and furthermore how are those futures calculated? I found some futures of the DOW, S&P, and some NASDAQ indexes (all beginning with a forward slash) on TD Ameritrade, but I haven't found anything similar on Fidelity, and I don't really understand I guess the methodology behind what those futures are telling me.

What if I want to look at futures for oil, grain, or lumber?

Thank you in advance. I appreciate the assistance.
