This article analyze the usability of compositional indicators of market monitoring for expending the frame of traditional cyclicity of economic activity, review of use of compositional indicators throw the example of various countries and international organizations is presented. Key selection criteria for market monitoring indicators, that are used along with quantitative statistics for joined inclusion into the system of cyclic indicators are adducing. Iteration procedure of testing the dynamics of market monitoring indicators by means of their joint assessment with the key components the referent statistics” dynamics, in order to maximize the coverage of primary aggregating information from subsequent identification of turning points, as well as deducing the possible average cycle chronology is substantiated.
