If you are trying to get your backtest to match your real trading, then one approach would be to try and define why you don't accept some trades. What is it that makes you not want to take those trades. Once you know the answer, then you can add rules to handle those situations.
For example; Do you really care that the company is being taken over? Or, is it that you think that sudden high volume and rapidly escalating price can not be sustained? If it is the latter, then just add an AFL rule that filters out stocks that show unusually high recent volume or suspiciously high sudden gains.
