I have one formula that was created via backtest and optimizations. 
Then I copy that formula for use in actually trading the system.  If I
need to make some on the fly modifications (your takeover example is a
good one) then I modify the second file.  This is EOD so "on the fly"
is at the end of the day.

For example if a buy occurs due to a takeover bid I will modify the
formula to not take the trade.  e.g.

Buy = ! ( Name() == "ARI.TO" AND DateNum() == 1080814 ) 
      AND
      BuyCondition

The same can be done for exiting trades.
