Hello,

User's Guide:

Frequently Asked Questions about drag & drop functionality
Q. What is the difference between Insert and Insert Linked option in chart menu?

A. Insert command internally creates a copy of the original formula file and places such copy into hidden drag-drop folder so 
original formula will not be affected by subsequent editing or overlaying other indicators onto it. Double clicking on formula name 
in the chart tree is equivalent with choosing Insert command from the menu. On the other hand Insert Linked command does not create 
any copy of the formula. Instead it creates new chart pane that directly links to original formula. This way subsequent editing 
and/or overlaying other indicators will modify the original


So the answer to your question is: use "Insert Linked".

FYI: when you use FORMULA EDITOR, the file is ALWAYS saved in the original location !!!
(So it works like any other editor - this makes using external editor pointless)
