How can I get live real time data without paying extra fees?

I just realized yahoo finance gives real time data.
So I guess one can use that data to see real time data on chart and trade with any other broker?

Yahoo provides BATS ECN data I believe for free, which is real-time, but does not cover the full market, so the quality will definitely differ from one symbol to another.
TD Ameritrade - RT data for stocks, options, futures, forex. just need to have an account.
IB for all practical purposes just passes through the exchange fees. I don't think they charge anything on top of that.
Same goes for Ally invest.
Tradier - I believe is free real-time data for account holders.
(All those work with Medved Trader)
 
Just don't be shocked when the free or 'gratis' real time data you're getting doesn't align so fluently with actual live exchange time and sales. Speaking for futures, that data ain't free from the exchange.

I just talked with interactive brokers and they told me they charge extra fees and deposit for live market data ..otherwise their data is 15 min. delayed.

Are all brokers same like interactive brokers ...they charge extra for real time data?

Is there other way than brokers ...like other website that provides real time data?

If you find any 'free' real time data - I personally wouldn't recommend that you day trade on it. You miss one trade or get picked off one time - your entire justification for 'free' just got blown up. Just my own 2 cents, YMMV.
