would this also cover currency pairs or would that be something different?

It depends on what you are looking for in terms of "currency pairs". If you are referring to Currency Futures from the CME Group, then those are traded on the same CME exchange as the S&P 500, so they would be included when you setup the data for the S&P 500.

But, if you are looking for FOREX data, then we have data from FXCM for free with any Sierra Chart package.

and what would be the cheapest way to have this?

It just depends on what exchanges and data you need, as the exchange fees can vary from $1.25 to $33.00. To get the Denali data for the CME Group, follow these instructions (note that you will need to change your package to Package 11 to get the data):
Denali Exchange Data Feed: *Setup Instructions: CME/CBOT/NYMEX/COMEX Exchanges*

Also, make sure you understand the CME Group requirement that you have a live, funded, futures trading account to which you can connect your Sierra Chart at least once a month to qualify for the non-professional exchange fees. Refer to the information here:
