Futures trading settlement question...

I am a new to futures trading. I understand that futures contracts are settled the same day. Does this mean when you buy, say 1 crude oil contract, then sell that contract, you can use those same funds again for trading? Once a position is closed out are you able to immediately re-use those funds in futures trading?

Thanks for the help.
