Seguir el rastro


Explanation:
Me extraña que a nadie se le haya ocurrido. Es la única precisa, además de literal, por supuesto.
Seguirle el rastro a algo: "to keep track on something".

No lo pienses ni media vez.

Buena suerte

Ver lo que sigue


Explanation:
Me rectifico; "seguirle el rastro" no es la única. También se puede decir "seguirle la pista", "seguirle los pasos", dependiendo del contexto. Pero "seguirle el rastro" sigue siendo la mejor porque aplica a cualquier cotexto. Por otra parte, "to track something" es "rastrear algo".

Suerte!

"keep track"


Explanation:
realmente pienso que todas las respuestas anteriores son válidas.yo te doy una diferente. Yo utilizo mucho esta expresión en mi trabajo y frecuentemente la traduzco como "seguimiento". Tambien se puede traducir por "monitorizar" pero es un anglicismo que a mi parecer debemos evitar.

Un saludo y mucha suerte
