This may seem like a stupid question but does that mean that the ASX SPI 200 shown at the top of the market indices list on the CommSec trading interface is the predicted future price/open of the market??? I'm just a little unsure about what it all means, I'm eager to learn but finding it hard to figure out EVERYTHING on my own. For example what does the following mean? (Indices at the end of today's trade)

The All Ords ended at 4070 however the SPI 200 (which is the futures of the All Ords as I gather) states -36 at 3964 which is obviously more than 36 lower than the 4070... I'm just trying to understand what this all means... Any help would be MUCH appreciated.
