How much does it cost you each month to trade, as far as data, platform, etc?

Data: I use interactive brokers. Data $10/month if I don't trade, otherwise just commissions which run $4.80 round trip. There may be other fees for other exchanges other than Globex or ECBOT.

Platform: charting software: Ensignsoftware which links to IB for data. $40.00/month
Front end for IB: zerolinetrader $70/year (yes that's for one year). Provides simple and effective DOM for one click trading including scale ins, scale outs and reversals.

Other than the computer itself, nothing else.
