Detect changes on oppty record home page in lightning component to detect need for refresh

When you create a lightning component and put that on an opportunity record home page (oppty detail page), it is pilot functionality right now. 
I created a lightning component that draws some graphics and it is dependent on some felds on the oppty and some related records (task & events). So if I change the close date I need to refresh my component, but also if a new task/event is added from the oppty page I need to redraw the component.

What event do you need to listen to in order to detect a change on any field on the oppty itself? Or do I need to do something else?

Any ideas?

I know the answer is pretty late and you probably either found your answer or gave up but I'll leave a link here to the documentation so the next person might find out what to do in this case :)

There's also the new events funcionality since Summer '17: https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.lightning.meta/lightning/js_cb_data_change.htm

And trailhead badges to teach about it ˆˆ
