Hi Hasham,
There are many serves that you can try including the Pendulum, Backhand, Tomahawk... It is important that you choose the serves that suit your game.
To be able to pick of the ball is coming fast or slow it is important to watch the ball carefully. That means really focusing on the ball with your full concentration. This will allow you to see the actions of your opponent with the serve that will give you clues as to the speed such as how big the backswing is before contact.
Also once they hit the ball you will see the direction quicker.
