how to get distance i pips price-limit order to Cbot pleease?

Hello all,
can someone please help me how to get the distance from current price to limit order? position.Entryprice is i think for filled positions and somethink like order.Entryprice is possible?
I want to be alerted when price is near about 3pips from my limit order and already made a reaction for example 10 pips. It is simple to use build in alerts, but i want to be alerted only when price made a reaction without filling me, so i can remove the limit order and not to take second test of my level. I am trying to program this a long time, but it is not working good, i need to know the distance price---limit.order.
Thank you very much for any info.
Rene

Difference between current price and target price of pending order, divided by pip size gives you number of pips away from your order.

private void PrintDistanceForEachPendingOrder()
{
var pendingOrders = PendingOrders;
foreach (var pendingOrder in pendingOrders)
{
var distancePips = Math.Round(Math.Abs(pendingOrder.TargetPrice - (pendingOrder.TradeType == TradeType.Buy ? Symbol.Ask : Symbol.Bid)) / Symbol.PipSize, 1);
Print(distancePips);
}
}
