What is the best way to do this?I currently have Tradeking. Can I purchase Vanguard funds through them or will I need to buy them through Vanguard?
Also what fees should I expect? Commission fees?

I have my accounts at Schwab and just buy through them.

I opened my Roth with Vanguard and have a couple of their funds in that portfolio. Just read the prospectus.
There are also index funds like SPDR and QQQQ that you can buy through your regular stock broker.
