Even reading the posts people post on CMC can give you some sort of idea about something and the potential price change and if you watch the bullish/bearish meters, as they shift daily, you can see how public sentiment changes which also heavily affects price. Hope you find some success! :D
Also, since I mentioned Hive-Engine, If you have/had SWAP.HIVE on there and it was sitting there, but you DO buy tokens on there, I'd suggest taking advantage of the price hike on there as well. Higher Hive $ value + HE Tokens retaining same $ value = More HE Tokens for your $ boosted Hive! :)
