Syntax
public InSyncIndex(Bars bars, string description)
public static InSyncIndex Series(Bars bars)

Description
The Insync Index created by Norm North allows to show the consolidated status of an indicator group. Essentially, it's a consensus "master oscillator" that shows when a majority of the underlying indicators are acting in sync, suggesting that a turning point is near.
