    How do I know programmetically my profit target or stop loss is hit?

    I would like to build a strategy that emails me when entry orders are filled, profit targets are hit, etc. I know I can use OnOrderUpdate in the case of orders being filled since I can hold the "order" object returned by EnterLong or ExitShort methods. However, since I use SetProfitTarget and SetStopLoss to place profit target and stop loss, I don't know how to find if they are hit programmetically. The only thing I can think of is to submit stop orders for profit target and stop loss directly instead of using SetProfitTarget and SetStopLoss. This approach will definitely make my code more complicate. Have I missed something? Are there better options? Thanks!
