I'd be careful about assuming the platforms will "love it". AirBnB, in particular, is very sensitive to customer experiences and ever-changing prices are known to be extremely annoying. A delicate balance must be struck.

Maybe there could be an option for "max volatility" or something where an owner would give it a percent and say "Don't change my price by more than x% in y time".
