| Shorting or Inverse Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Shorting or Inverse Risk – The Fund will lose money when the value of INTC rises because of the Fund’s inverse or short exposure – this result is the opposite from a traditional index fund. The Fund’s assets will increase in value when INTC’s daily return decreases. The Fund’s assets will decrease in value when INTC’s daily return increases. Because historically most assets have risen in value over the long term, short exposure or positions and therefore, the value of the Fund is expected to depreciate in value over time, notwithstanding any separate effects of compounding and the Fund’s daily repositioning of inverse exposure. Additionally, if the level of INTC approaches a 100% increase at any point in the day, an investor could lose their entire investment. Accordingly, short positions and exposure may be riskier and more speculative than traditional investments. The costs of obtaining short exposure or maintaining short positions will lower the Fund’s returns. To the extent that the Fund obtains short exposure from derivatives, the Fund may be exposed to heightened volatility, reduced correlation to INTC or limited liquidity related to the reference asset of the underlying short position, which will adversely impact the Fund’s ability to meet its investment objective or adversely impact its performance. If the Fund were to experience this volatility or decreased liquidity, the Fund may be required to obtain short exposure through alternative investment strategies that may have less correlation to INTC, less liquidity or are more costly to implement. If the reference asset underlying the short position is thinly traded or has a limited market, there may be a lack of available securities or counterparties for the Fund to enter into a short position or obtain short exposure from a derivative instrument. |
| Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk — |
| Derivatives Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Derivatives Risk — Derivatives are financial instruments that derive value from the underlying reference asset or assets, such as stocks, bonds, or funds (including ETFs), interest rates or indexes. Investing in derivatives may be considered aggressive and may expose the Fund to greater risks, and may result in larger losses or smaller gains, than investing directly in the reference assets underlying those derivatives, which may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective. The Fund’s investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other investments, including risk related to the market, leverage, imperfect correlations with underlying investments or the Fund’s other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility, lack of availability, counterparty, liquidity, valuation and legal restrictions. The performance of a derivative may not track the performance of its reference asset for various reasons, including due to fees and other costs associated with it. Because derivatives often require only a limited initial investment, the use of derivatives may expose the Fund to losses in excess of the amount initially invested. As a result, the value of an investment in the Fund may change quickly and without warning. If the underlying security has a dramatic intraday increase or decrease that causes a material change in the Fund’s performance and/or net assets, the terms of a swap agreement between the Fund and its counterparty may permit the counterparty to immediately close the swap agreement with the Fund. In that event, the Fund may not be able to enter into another swap agreement or invest in other derivatives to achieve its investment objective. This may occur even if the underlying security reverses all or a portion of its intraday movement by the end of the day. Upon entering into certain derivatives contracts, such as swap agreements, and to maintain open positions in such agreements, the Fund may be required to post collateral, the amount of which may vary. As such, the Fund may maintain cash balances, which may be significant, with service providers such as the Fund’s custodian or its affiliates in segregated accounts. Maintaining larger cash and cash equivalent positions may also subject the Fund to additional risks, such as increased credit risk with respect to the custodian bank holding the assets. |
| Counterparty Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Counterparty Risk — If a counterparty is unwilling or unable to make timely payments to meet its contractual obligations or fails to return holdings that are subject to the agreement with the counterparty, the Fund will lose money and/or not be able to meet its daily inverse investment objective. Because the Fund may enter into swap agreements with a limited number of counterparties, this increases the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties will be willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its inverse investment objective or rebalance properly, which may result in significant losses to the Fund. The risk that no suitable counterparties will enter into or continue to provide swap exposure to the Fund may be heightened when there is significant volatility in the overall market or the reference asset. |
| Rebalancing Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Rebalancing Risk — If for any reason the Fund is unable to rebalance all or a part of its portfolio, or if all or a portion of the portfolio is rebalanced incorrectly, the Fund’s investment exposure may not be consistent with its investment objective which may lead to greater losses or reduced gains. In these instances, the Fund may have investment exposure to INTC that is significantly greater or significantly less than its stated investment objective. Additionally, the Fund may close to purchases and sales of Shares prior to the close of trading on the Nasdaq or other national securities listing exchanges where Shares are listed and incur significant losses. |
| Cash Transaction Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Cash Transaction Risk— Unlike most ETFs, the Fund currently intends to effect creations and redemptions principally for cash, rather than principally for in-kind securities, because of the nature of the financial instruments held by the Fund. As a result, the Fund is not expected to be tax efficient and will incur brokerage and financing costs related to buying and selling securities and/or obtaining short derivative exposure to achieve its investment objective thus incurring additional expenses than other funds that primarily effect creations and redemptions in kind. To the extent that such costs are not offset by transaction fees paid by an authorized participant, the Fund may bear such costs, which will decrease the Fund’s net asset value. |
| Intra Day Investment Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Intra-Day Investment Risk— The intra-day performance of Fund shares traded in the secondary market will be different from the performance of the Fund when measured from the close of the market on a given trading day until the close of the market on the subsequent trading day. An investor that purchases shares intra-day may experience performance that is greater than, or less than, the Fund’s stated investment objective. If there is a significant intra-day market event and/or the securities experience a significant change in value, the Fund may not meet its investment objective or may be unable to rebalance its portfolio appropriately, resulting in significant losses or reduced gains. In response to significant intraday market volatility, among other actions, the Adviser may determine to trade a portion or all of the rebalance trade for the Fund prior to market close, which may result in the Fund not achieving its investment objective. Additionally, the Fund’s Shares traded on the secondary market may experience significant premiums or discounts, or widened bid-ask spreads. |
| Daily Correlation Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Daily Inverse Correlation Risk - There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve a high degree of inverse correlation to INTC and therefore achieve its daily inverse investment objective. The Fund’s exposure to INTC is impacted by INTC’s movement. Because of this, it is unlikely that the Fund will be perfectly exposed to INTC at the end of each day. The possibility of the Fund being materially over- or under-exposed to INTC increases on days when INTC is volatile near the close of the trading day. Market disruptions, regulatory restrictions and high volatility will also adversely affect the Fund’s ability to adjust exposure to the required levels. The Fund may have difficulty achieving its daily inverse investment objective for many reasons, including fees, expenses, transaction costs, financing costs related to the use of derivatives, accounting standards and their application to income items, disruptions, illiquid or high volatility in the markets for the securities or financial instruments in which the Fund invests, early and unanticipated closings of the markets on which the holdings of the Fund trade, resulting in the inability of the Fund to execute intended portfolio transactions, regulatory and tax considerations, which may cause the Fund to hold (or not to hold) INTC. The Fund may be required to trade more frequently or may refrain from taking certain positions to ensure compliance with regulatory restrictions or to ensure qualification as a registered investment company or to improve tax efficiency, or for other reasons, each of which may negatively impact the Fund’s desired inverse correlation with INTC or increase its required distributions. The derivative instruments or other investments the Fund utilizes to obtain exposure may not provide the expected correlation to INTC, resulting in the Fund not performing as expected. The Fund may be subject to large movements of assets into and out of the Fund, potentially resulting in the Fund being over- or under-exposed to INTC. Any of these factors could decrease the inverse correlation between the performance of the Fund and INTC and may hinder the Fund’s ability to meet its daily inverse investment objective on or around that day. |
| Market Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Market Risk — The Fund’s investments are subject to changes in general economic conditions, general market fluctuations and the risks inherent in investment in securities markets. Investment markets can be volatile and prices of investments can change substantially due to various factors including, but not limited to, economic growth or recession, changes in interest rates, changes in the actual or perceived creditworthiness of issuers, general market liquidity, exchange trading suspensions and closures, geopolitical events, tariffs, trade wars, natural disasters, and public health risks. Interest rates and inflation rates may change frequently and drastically due to various factors and the Fund’s investments may be adversely impacted. The economic, fiscal, monetary and foreign policies of the U.S. government, including the imposition of tariffs, changes to its federal agencies and changes to regulatory policies, will impact the U.S. economy and could lead to increased market volatility and may adversely impact the overall market and individual securities. |
| NonAffiliation Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Non-Affiliation Risk — Intel Corporation is not affiliated with the Trust, the Adviser or any affiliates thereof and is not involved with this offering in any way, and has no obligation to consider the Fund in taking any corporate actions that might affect the value of the Fund. The Trust, the Fund and any affiliate are not responsible for the performance of INTC and make no representation as to the performance of INTC. Investing in the Fund is not equivalent to investing in INTC. Fund shareholders will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to INTC. |
| Intel Corporation Investing Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Intel Corporation Investing Risk– Issuer-specific attributes may cause an investment held by the Fund to be more volatile than the market generally. The value of an individual security or particular type of security may be more volatile than the market as a whole and may perform differently from the value of the market as a whole. As of the date of this prospectus, Intel Corporation shares face risks associated with: intense competition; rapidly changing industry; long-term risky investments in research and development may not benefit the company; development and implementation of semiconductor products is uncertain; changes in demand and margins; macroeconomic conditions are uncontrollable; use of artificial intelligence is rapidly evolving; complexities of the global supply chain; products may have defects or other issues; security vulnerabilities; cybersecurity attacks; intellectual property risks; ability to retain and attract qualified talent; fluctuations in currency exchange rates; catastrophic events are impossible to predict and can have a material adverse effect; as well as regulatory, tax, insurance, legal and litigation issues. |
| Security Volatility Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Security Volatility Risk — The performance of the Fund is designed to correlate to the inverse performance of INTC. Significant short-term price movements in INTC could adversely impact the performance of both INTC and the Fund, increase the Fund’s bid-ask spread and adversely impact the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. In addition, the net asset value of the Fund over short-term periods may be more volatile than other investment options due to the volatility of INTC. |
| Concentration Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Concentration Risk — The Fund will be concentrated in a particular security, INTC, and therefore, a particular industry and will have more than 25% of its total assets in investments that provide inverse exposure to the information technology sector and semiconductor industry (the risks of which are described below), the same industry and/or sector to which INTC is assigned. Since the Fund is concentrated in a particular security and therefore industry and/or sector, it presents more risks than a portfolio broadly diversified over several industries. A portfolio invested in multiple securities and industries typically presents less risk than a portfolio concentrated in one security or industry because market changes that adversely impact one security or industry may benefit others. Because the Fund only invests in instruments referencing one security and industry, it should be expected to increase from any market movements that adversely impact INTC and/or information technology sector and semiconductor industry. |
| Information Technology Sector Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Information Technology Sector Risk — The value of stocks of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology is particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation, and competition, both domestically and internationally, including competition from competitors with lower production costs. In addition, many information technology companies have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. The prices of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology, especially those of smaller, less-seasoned companies, tend to be more volatile and less liquid than the overall market. Information technology companies are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability. Additionally, companies in the information technology sector may face dramatic and often unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel. Companies in the application software industry, in particular, may also be negatively affected by the risk that subscription renewal rates for their products and services decline or fluctuate, leading to declining revenues. Companies in the systems software industry may be adversely affected by, among other things, actual or perceived security vulnerabilities in their products and services, which may result in individual or class action lawsuits, state or federal enforcement actions and other remediation costs. Companies in the computer software industry may also be affected by the availability and price of computer software technology components. |
| Semiconductor Industry Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Semiconductor Industry Risk– Semiconductor companies may face intense competition, both domestically and internationally, including from subsidized foreign competitors with lower production costs, and such competition may have an adverse effect on their profit margins. Semiconductor companies may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. Semiconductor companies’ supply chain and operations are dependent on the availability of materials that meet exacting standards and the use of third parties to provide components and services. Semiconductor companies may rely on a limited number of suppliers, or upon suppliers in a single location, for certain materials, equipment or tools. Finding and qualifying alternate or additional suppliers can be a lengthy process that can cause production delays or impose unforeseen costs, and such alternatives may not be available at all. Production can be disrupted by the unavailability of resources, such as water, silicon, electricity, gases and other materials. Suppliers may also increase prices or encounter cybersecurity or other issues that can disrupt production or increase production costs. Semiconductor companies typically face high capital costs and such companies may need additional financing, which may be difficult to obtain. They also may be subject to risks relating to research and development costs and the availability and price of components. The products of semiconductor companies may face obsolescence due to rapid technological developments and frequent new product introduction, unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel. Capital equipment expenditures could be substantial, and equipment generally suffers from rapid obsolescence. Companies in the semiconductor industry are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights. The loss or impairment of these rights would adversely affect the profitability of these companies. |
| Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Big Data Company Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Big Data Company Risk — |
| Large Capitalization Company Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Large-Capitalization Company Risk — Large-capitalization companies typically have significant financial resources, extensive product lines and broad markets for their goods and/or services. However, they may be less able to adapt to changing market conditions or to respond quickly to competitive challenges or to changes in business, product, financial, or market conditions and may not be able to maintain growth at rates that may be achieved by well-managed smaller and mid-size companies, which may affect the companies’ returns. |
| Money Market Instrument Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Money Market Instrument Risk — The Fund may use a variety of money market instruments for cash management purposes, including money market funds, depositary accounts and repurchase agreements. Money market funds may be subject to credit risk with respect to the debt instruments in which they invest. Depository accounts may be subject to credit risk with respect to the financial institution in which the depository account is held. Money market instruments may lose money. |
| Liquidity Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Liquidity Risk — Holdings of the Fund may be difficult to buy or sell or may be illiquid, particularly during times of market turmoil. There is no assurance that a security or derivative instrument that is deemed liquid when purchased will continue to be liquid. Illiquid securities may be difficult to value, especially in changing or volatile markets. If the Fund is forced to buy or sell an illiquid security or derivative instrument at an unfavorable time or price, the Fund may be adversely impacted. Certain market conditions or restrictions may prevent the Fund from limiting losses, realizing gains or achieving its investment objective. In certain market conditions the Fund may be one of many market participants that is attempting to transact in the underlying security. Under such circumstances, the market for the underlying security may lack sufficient liquidity for all market participants' trades. Therefore, the Fund may have more difficulty transacting in the securities or financial instruments and the Fund's transactions could exacerbate illiquidity and price volatility. To the extent that the instruments utilized by the Fund are thinly traded or have a limited market, the Fund may be unable to meet its investment objective due to a lack of available investments or counterparties. During such periods, the Fund’s ability to issue additional Creation Units may be adversely affected. As a result, the Fund’s shares could trade at a premium or discount to their net asset value and/or the bid-ask spread of the Fund’s shares could widen. Under such circumstances, the Fund may be unable to rebalance its exposure properly which may result in significantly more or less exposure and losses to the Fund. In such an instance, the Fund may increase its transaction fee, utilize derivatives instruments that are less correlated to INTC, change its investment objective, reduce its exposure for a period of time or close. |
| Early Close Trading Halt Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Early Close/Trading Halt Risk — An exchange or market may close early and unexpectedly or issue trading halts on specific securities or financial instruments. Under such circumstances, the Fund may be unable to execute intended portfolio transactions, rebalance its portfolio, or accurately price its investments, and may disrupt the Fund’s creation/redemption process which means the Fund may be unable to achieve its investment objective and it may incur substantial losses or reduced gains. |
| Equity Securities Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Equity Securities Risk — Publicly issued equity securities, including common stocks, are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities in which the Fund invests, and/or has exposure to, will cause the net asset value of the Fund to fluctuate. |
| Tax Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Tax Risk — In order to qualify for the special tax treatment accorded a regulated investment company (“RIC”) and its shareholders, the Fund must derive at least 90% of its gross income for each taxable year from “qualifying income,” meet certain asset diversification tests at the end of each taxable quarter, and meet annual distribution requirements. The Fund’s pursuit of its investment strategy will potentially be limited by the Fund’s intention to qualify for such treatment and could adversely affect the Fund’s ability to so qualify. The Fund may make certain investments, the treatment of which for these purposes is unclear. If, in any year, the Fund were to fail to qualify for the special tax treatment accorded a RIC and its shareholders, and were ineligible to or were not able to cure such failure, the Fund would be taxed in the same manner as an ordinary corporation subject to U.S. federal income tax on all its income at the fund level. The resulting taxes could substantially reduce the Fund’s net assets and the amount of income available for distribution. In addition, in order to requalify for taxation as a RIC, the Fund could be required to recognize unrealized gains, pay substantial taxes and interest, and make certain distributions. Please see the section entitled “Dividends, Other Distributions and Taxes” in the Statement of Additional Information for more information. |
| NonDiversification Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Non-Diversification Risk — The Fund has the ability to invest a relatively high percentage of its assets in the securities of a small number of issuers or in financial instruments with a single counterparty or a few counterparties. This may increase the Fund’s volatility and increase the risk that the Fund’s performance will decline based on the performance of a single issuer, the credit of a single counterparty, and/or a single economic, political or regulatory event. |
| Authorized Participants Concentration Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Authorized Participants Concentration Risk. The Fund may have a limited number of financial institutions that may act as Authorized Participants. To the extent that those Authorized Participants exit the business or are unable to process creation and/or redemption orders, Shares may trade at larger bid-ask spreads and/or premiums or discounts to net asset value. Authorized Participant concentration risk may be heightened for a fund that invests in non-U.S. securities or other securities or instruments that have lower trading volumes. |
| Absence of Active Market Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Absence of Active Market Risk. Although Shares are listed for trading on a stock exchange, there is no assurance that an active trading market for them will develop or be maintained. In the absence of an active trading market for Shares, they will likely trade with a wider bid/ask spread and at a greater premium or discount to net asset value. |
| Market Price Variance Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Market Price Variance Risk. Fund Shares can be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices, which may be higher or lower than the net asset value of the Fund. When Shares trade at a price greater than net asset value, they are said to trade at a “premium.” When they trade at a price less than net asset value, they are said to trade at a “discount.” The market price of Shares fluctuates based on changes in the value of the Fund’s holdings, the supply and demand for Shares and other market factors. The market price of Shares may vary significantly from the Fund’s net asset value especially during times of market volatility or stress. Further, to the extent that exchange specialists, market makers, Authorized Participants, or other market participants are unavailable or unable to trade the Fund’s Shares and/or create or redeem Creation Units premiums or discounts may increase. |
| Trading Cost Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Trading Cost Risk. When buying or selling Shares in the secondary market, a buyer may incur brokerage commission or other charges. In addition, a buyer may incur the cost of the “spread” also known as the bid-ask spread, which is the difference between what investors are willing to pay for Fund shares (the “bid” price) and the price at which they are willing to sell Fund shares (the “ask” price). The bid-ask spread varies over time based on, among other things, trading volume, market liquidity and market volatility. Because of the costs inherent in buying or selling Fund shares, frequent trading may detract significantly from investment results. |
| Exchange Trading Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Exchange Trading Risk. Shares are listed for trading on the Nasdaq. They also may be listed or traded on other U.S. and non-U.S. stock exchanges and may trade on electronic communication networks. Trading in Shares on their listing exchange may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the exchange, make trading in Shares inadvisable, including if they fail to meet the listing requirements of the exchange. Under certain circumstances, Shares may even be delisted. Trading halts of Shares should be expected to disrupt the Fund’s creation/redemption process and may temporarily prevent investors from buying and selling Shares. Like other listed securities, Shares of the Fund may be sold short, and short positions in Shares may place downward pressure on their market price. |
| Risk Lose Money [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | The Fund may not achieve its inverse investment objective and there is a risk that you could lose all of your money invested in the Fund. |
