Currently with Ironbeam. Use their web platform so no data fees. All I trade is Nasdaq or S&P.
I was with Tradestation using their desktop platform download. Lots of options come with it. Data fees are $40 monthly ( waved if you accumulate $40 in futures commissions ).

Ninjatrader. I pay 14 a month for the data subscription. Love their charting customization and their ability to trade on the chart but they’re really designed for use on the PC. Their app has very limited charts but is awesome for order entry.
ETA I can’t remember what the minimum account balance is but I think it’s roughly $1000 to trade the micros and they have an abundance of those (SP, Nasdaq, crude, gold, Dow are the main ones I dabble with)
