Paul, to use your words, it is dynamic.  I just tried it out to verify
that I was remembering correctly - I changed the "MACD Crossover and
Stochastic %D Crossover (Buy)", a compound indicator that uses "MACD
Crossover (Buy)" and "Stochastic %D Crossover (Buy)":  I changed the
parameters of its MACD and its stochastic and saved them.  Then I used
the "market analyzer" editing function to view the parameters for the
"MACD Crossover (Buy)" and "Stochastic %D Crossover (Buy)" generators
and the values had not changed.  So the "sub"-generators are not shared.
(If anyone's wondering, market analyzer and generator [short for event
generator] mean the same thing.)
