I am trying to set everything up on Sierra Chart using Denali Data feed and terminate my data feed from my broker (AMP). I have managed to activate the denali feed and get the ES data to work on Sierra Chart. My question is what is the best way to get SPX / SP500 index data? Is there a way to get it through Denali?

You have access to the SPX500 CFD information as part of your Sierra Chart package. You will find the symbol under the section for CFD - FXCM in Find Symbol.

Otherwise, if you want the actual $SPX index (CBOE S&P 500 Index), then you would need to use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed and activate the CBOE Indices exchange. Refer to the information on this page (which includes the Setup Instructions):

Why is the real time price different from the one on the CBOE indices?

Because they are not exactly the same thing even though they are both measures of basically the same underlying data. But, if you want to fully understand the differences you would need to look into that yourself. We do not have that exact information handy.
