Captain Jack ---

This is NOT meant as a flame,
or is it intended to belittle your question,
because asking questions is a good way to learn.

When you post ---
" Can someone tell me how to go about trading futures? I was wondering if there are any futures available for oil companies? With gas prices so low now won't they rise in value after gas prices go back up?
Any help is appreciated.
"

I think that the best answer you can receive falls along the lines of

Please learn a LOT more about futures BEFORE you begin trading in them.

It's kinda like sitting down at a very high stakes poker game, even though one might have the financial, emotional, and mental abilities, not understanding how to play poker, but knowing that hearts were higher than clubs and spades is the highest suit .........

Others on the thread will be much more able than me to recco different books and courses for you to use, but I'm just getting started back to trading the futures after a self imposed hiatus of 20+ plus years due to fear of the risk involved.
Now, I've been trading equities, options, some warrants, a few bonds, and even some funds for more than 40 years, and I'm still fearful of futures ......

Hope you take this post in the spirit of good will with no foul intended but offered toward your request for help .....

I will commend you on starting in the stock market at an early age (20yrs), and know that you will find it a monetarily rewarding long term endeavor.
Good luck to you and don't forget to keep asking and learning.
This thread is a fine place to do both.

Regards

Nemer
