When are indicators calculated if they are called from an EA?

 
If use an indicator (custom or not) in my EA, when is that indicator updated? Is it updated on every tick or only when it is called from the EA?

Ok, I was suspecting that because it is better for perfomance, but MT isn't always that smart. Thanks!

It really depends on how you code your codes. So, it is not MT's fault if its not smart enough.
