Americanbaby.com has the best fertility predictor.. and around that the ovulation day too.
Anyway, other signs are a clear and increasingly thickening discharge that will be of the consistence of the egg white in the day of ovulation. The best way though to know 100% is to actually take an ovulation test and take it 3 days prior to the presumed ovulation day; you use around 3-5 tests at once.

Every woman is different but women who have regular 28 day cycles ovulate about 14 days after the start of their period. Women who have irregular periods can really only detect ovulation by using ovulation detectors or fertility monitors. Other signs are: a raise in basal body temperature, a whitish clearish type discharge, and some women claim to have light pain near one of their ovaries (where the egg is released into the fallopian tube).

If you chart your basal body temperature you will see a rise in temperature confirming that you have ovulated. Monitoring cervical mucous can give you a couple days warning that it's coming and that you are fertile in those days leading up to it.
The post-ovulatory phase of the cycle is pretty constant and women typically ovulate 12-16 days before their period. If your cycles are irregular, obviously that isn't much help because you don't know when your period is due... hence the reason for monitoring temp and mucous.

Basal Body Temperature chart is a way commonly used to determine the time of ovulation. The basal body temperature refers to the temperature of your body at rest. You will need a special thermometer or ovulation thermometer and graph papers or a special chart. To determine your BBT, record your temperature everyday upon awakening before you get out of bed. Immediately after ovulation there will be a slight (no more than 0.4 to 1.0 degree Fahrenheit) but definite rise in your body temperature. Temperatures remain elevated until the next menstrual period.
Prior to ovulation, a woman's basal body temperatures generally range from 97.0 to 97.5 degrees Fahrenheit. Temperatures are suppressed at this time due to the presence of the hormone estrogen. After ovulation, due to the production of the heat-inducing hormone progesterone, temperatures rise to about 97.6 to 98.6 F. This rise in temperature indicates that ovulation has occurred. Your most fertile day is the one immediately before the rise in temperature. This method can be best utilized along with other fertility signs such as a pain or ache felt on one side of the lower abdomen, to be accurate. When a woman is pregnant, her temperature remains elevated throughout pregnancy. This test can also be used to know whether a woman is ovulating or not. If ovulation does not occur the normal temperature remains static always.
The calendar calculation method is a simple, though not very reliable, way to estimate when you are likely to be most fertile. To use this method, count the days of your cycle for at least 6 months. Subtract 20 from the length of your shortest cycle to estimate the first day of your fertile window. Then subtract 10 from your longest cycle to estimate the last day of your fertile window.
Example: If over 6 cycles, a woman’s shortest cycle was 26 days and her longest was 29 days, her calculation would look like this:
(shortest cycle) 26 – 20 = 6
(longest cycle) 29 – 10 = 19
This suggests her fertile window may be between days 6 and 19 of her next cycle
Fertility monitoring kits
There are fertility monitoring kits on the market that may be useful in helping to identify the fertile and infertile days of your cycle. These devices tend to be expensive and some women find them difficult to read. But for women who want to gather as much information as possible (whether to get pregnant or avoid getting pregnant) or for women who find it uncomfortable to check their cervix or cervical mucus, these kits may be helpful.
Hormone monitoring devices measure hormone levels in urine to predict ovulation and determine which days you are likely to be fertile. The kit stores this information and builds up a record, or profile, of your personal cycles. The data is then used to help predict fertility.
Hormone monitoring devices are not recommended for women who have short cycles, long cycles, are breastfeeding or have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). Read the package instructions before buying or using a monitoring kit.

It's usually around 2 weeks after your period. With me, I can usually tell by the "raw egg-white like" discharge, cramping and lower back pain.
