if you could see the trend on the charts without taking a close look then everybody would have been rich from trading altcoins.
the signs are there, both in the charts and also in the news you only have to know where to look

There are a lot of litecoin bag holders who desperately want a pump to cash out. An increase from 574 to 625 in two months with no volume to speak of is not a tradeable trend just noise. There are no hidden indicators, no secrets.
the trade volume on poloniex alone is above 100BTC per day and it reaches as high as 2100BTC in some days depending on the price change. and that is just poloniex the total in slow days is above 500BTC
so yeah there is nothing going on, it is just noise
