I love Scottrade, but if you are new to investing, I'm not sure I would recommend such a brokerage. I would stear you to some place that offers low-cost mutual funds as nopped and BA have suggested.
I wouldn't be doing my service as a Vanguard Cultist if I didn't mention that.
Also just to confirm, do you have earned income? You can only fund an IRA with earned income.
