Investment Risks - Hedgeye Hedged Bitcoin ETF |
Aug. 24, 2026 |
|---|---|
| Options Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Options Risk. The use of options involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions and depends on the ability of the Fund’s portfolio managers to forecast market movements correctly. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, or in interest or currency exchange rates, including the anticipated volatility, which in turn are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political and economic events. Market conditions may cause the share price of the Reference Asset to be volatile. The effective use of options also depends on the Fund’s ability to terminate option positions at times deemed desirable to do so. There is no assurance that the Fund will be able to effect closing transactions at any particular time or at an acceptable price. In addition, there may at times be an imperfect correlation between the movement in values of options and their underlying securities and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for certain options. Investing in the Fund is not equivalent to investing in the Reference Asset. The Fund’s options contracts will limit the Fund’s participation in any gains in the price of the Reference Asset and may not offset all losses related to any decreases in value experienced by the Reference Asset. Lastly, the trading of options is subject to transaction costs that may impact the Fund’s returns.
|
| Liquidity Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Liquidity Risk. The market for options may be subject to periods of illiquidity. During such times it may be difficult or impossible to buy or sell a position at the desired price. Market disruptions or volatility can also make it difficult to find a counterparty willing to transact at a reasonable price and sufficient size. Illiquid markets may cause losses, which could be significant. The large size of the positions which the Fund may acquire and the Fund’s focus on the Reference Asset increases the risk of illiquidity, may make its positions more difficult to liquidate, and may increase the losses incurred while trying to do so. Such large positions also may impact the price of options held by the Fund.
|
| Active Management Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Active Management Risk. The Fund is actively-managed and may not meet its investment objective based on the Adviser’s success or failure to implement its investment strategies for the Fund. The success of the Fund’s investment program depends largely on the investment techniques applied by the Adviser. It is possible the investment techniques employed on behalf of the Fund will not produce the desired results. |
| Early Close/Late Close/Trading Halt Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Early Close/Late Close/Trading Halt Risk. An exchange or market may close early, close late or issue trading halts on specific securities or financial instruments. As a result, the ability to trade certain securities or financial instruments may be restricted, which may disrupt the Fund’s creation and redemption process, potentially affect the price at which Shares trade in the secondary market, and/or result in the Fund being unable to trade certain securities or financial instruments at all. In these circumstances, the Fund may be unable to rebalance its portfolio, may be unable to accurately price its investments and/or may incur substantial trading losses. If trading in Shares is halted, investors may be temporarily unable to trade Shares.
|
| Derivatives Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Derivatives Risk. The use of derivative instruments (i.e. options contracts) involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include: (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset. Derivative prices are highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially during a short period of time. Such prices are influenced by numerous factors that affect the markets, including, but not limited to: changing supply and demand relationships; government programs and policies; national and international political and economic events, changes in interest rates, inflation and deflation and changes in supply and demand relationships. Trading derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities. Derivative contracts ordinarily have leverage inherent in their terms. The use of leverage may cause the Fund to liquidate portfolio positions when it would not be advantageous to do so in order to satisfy its obligations or to meet regulatory or contractual requirements for derivatives. The use of derivatives can magnify potential for gain or loss and, therefore, amplify the effects of market volatility on the Fund Share price. |
| FLEX Options Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | FLEX Options Risk. The FLEX Options held by the Fund will be exercisable at the strike price only on their expiration date. Prior to the expiration date, the value of the FLEX Options will be determined based upon market quotations or using other recognized pricing methods. The value of the FLEX Options prior to the expiration date may vary because of related factors other than the value of the reference asset. Factors that may influence the value of the FLEX Options, other than gains or losses in the reference asset, may include interest rate changes, changing supply and demand, decreased liquidity of the FLEX Options and changing volatility levels of the reference asset. FLEX Options are listed on an exchange; however, it is not guaranteed that a liquid secondary trading market will exist. In the event that trading in the FLEX Options is limited or absent, the value of the FLEX Options may decrease.
|
| Leverage Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Leverage Risk. The Fund does not seek leveraged returns but as a result of the Fund’s use of certain derivatives it may create investment leverage. This means that the derivative position may provide the Fund with investment exposure greater than the value of the Fund’s investment in the derivative. As a result, these derivatives may magnify losses to the Fund, and even a small market movement may result in significant losses to the Fund.
|
| Swap Agreements Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Swap Agreements Risk. Swap agreements expose the Fund to the risk that the counterparty to the swap will default on its payment obligations, which could result in losses to the Fund. Additionally, unexpected market events or significant adverse market movements may leave the Fund with insufficient assets to meet its obligations under a swap agreement. Such events could hinder the Fund’s ability to implement its investment strategies and may lead to financial losses. The Fund’s use of swaps also involves risks related to market volatility and the potential for imperfect correlation with the Fund’s other investments.
|
| Cyber Security Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Cyber Security Risk. The Fund is susceptible to operational risks through breaches in cyber security. A breach in cyber security refers to both intentional and unintentional events that may cause the Fund to lose proprietary information, suffer data corruption or lose operational capacity. Such events could cause the Fund to incur regulatory penalties, reputational damage, additional compliance costs associated with corrective measures and/or financial loss. Cyber security breaches may involve unauthorized access to the Fund’s digital information systems through hacking or malicious software coding but may also result from outside attacks such as denial-of-service attacks through efforts to make network services unavailable to intended users. In addition, cyber security breaches of the issuers of securities in which the Fund invests or the Fund’s third-party service providers, such as its administrator, transfer agent, custodian, or sub-adviser, as applicable, can also subject the Fund to many of the same risks associated with direct cyber security breaches. Although the Fund has established risk management systems designed to reduce the risks associated with cyber security, there is no guarantee that such efforts will succeed, especially because the Fund does not directly control the cyber security systems of issuers or third-party service providers.
|
| Hedging Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Hedging Risk. The Fund may, when the Adviser in its discretion deems appropriate, purchase put and/or call options to hedge against the risk of drastic movements in the price of the Reference Asset and may engage in other various investments or transactions that are designed to hedge a position in the Fund’s portfolio. There is no assurance that these hedging techniques will be effective and such techniques involve costs that may reduce gains or result in losses, which may adversely affect the value of Shares.
|
| Key Man Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Key Man Risk. HRM’s ability to publish Hedgeye’s Risk Range ™ Signals daily, which are a critical input to the Fund, is heavily dependent on the manual activities of a single individual, HRM’S CEO and founder (“Key Man”). In the Key Man’s absence, the Risk Range™ Signals will be published by another individual (“Secondary Calculator”). The formula utilized by the Secondary Calculator is based on a formula that incorporates the same factors as the formula used by the Key Man but this formula is not identical to the formula utilized by the Key Man. If the Key Man were to leave HRM or is unable to calculate the Risk Range ™ Signals, the Risk Range ™ Signals may not function as designed and adversely impact the Fund. |
| Hedgeye Risk Range™ Signal Publication Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Hedgeye Risk Range™ Signal Publication Risk. Hedgeye’s Risk Range™ Signals are a critical input to the Fund. Those same Risk Range™ Signals are made available daily by HRM to other subscribers of the Risk Range™ Signals, which include both retail and institutional investors. The Adviser will receive the Risk Range™ Signals at the same time as all other subscribers of the Risk Range™ Signals. As a result, HRM subscribers may be able to act on the daily Risk Range™ signals ahead of the Fund.
|
| Industry Concentration Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Industry Concentration Risk. The Fund will be concentrated in the industry to which the Reference ETPs, including iShares® Bitcoin Trust ETF, are assigned (i.e., hold more than 25% of its total assets in investments that provide exposure to the industry to which Bitcoin is assigned). A portfolio concentrated in a particular industry may present more risks than a portfolio broadly diversified over several industries. As of the date of this prospectus, Bitcoin is assigned to the alternative asset group. |
| Inflation Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Inflation Risk. Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the present value of the Fund’s assets and distributions may decline.
|
| Investment Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Investment Risk. As with all investments, an investment in the Fund is subject to loss, including the possible loss of the entire principal amount of an investment, over short or long periods of time. |
| Market Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Market Risk. The trading prices of securities and other instruments fluctuate in response to a variety of factors, such as economic, financial or political events that impact the entire market, market segments, or specific issuers. The Fund’s NAV and market price may fluctuate significantly in response to these and other factors. As a result, an investor could lose money over short or long periods of time. |
| Transaction Cost Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Transaction Cost Risk. The Fund will pay transaction costs, such as commissions or mark-ups in the bid/offer spread on an option position, when it writes options. Because the Fund “turns over” its option positions every week (or more frequently), it will incur high transaction costs. While the turnover of the option positions sold by the Fund is not deemed “portfolio turnover” for accounting purposes, the economic impact to the Fund is similar to what could occur if the Fund experienced high portfolio turnover (e.g., in excess of 100% per year). The Fund’s high levels of turnover may result in higher taxes when Shares are held in a taxable account. The transaction costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example thereunder, may affect the Fund’s performance.
|
| US Treasury Bills Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | U.S. Treasury Bills Risk. U.S. Treasury bills may differ from other debt securities in their interest rates, maturities, times of issuance and other characteristics and may provide relatively lower returns than those other securities. Similar to other issuers, changes to the financial condition or credit rating of the U.S. government may cause the value of the Fund’s U.S. Treasury bills holdings to decline.
|
| Fixed Income Securities Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Fixed Income Securities Risk. When the Fund invests in fixed income securities, the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed income securities owned by the Fund. In general, the market price of fixed income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default), extension risk (an issuer may exercise its right to repay principal on a fixed rate obligation held by the Fund later than expected), and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). These risks could affect the value of a particular investment by the Fund, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments.
|
| ETF Structure Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | ETF Structure Risk. The Fund is structured as an ETF and is therefore subject to special risks. Such risks include: Cash Redemption Risk. The Fund may be required to sell or unwind portfolio investments to obtain the cash needed to distribute redemption proceeds. This may cause the Fund to incur certain costs such as brokerage costs, and to recognize capital gains that it might not have recognized if it had made a redemption in-kind. As a result, the Fund may pay out higher annual capital gain distributions than if the in-kind redemption process was used. Trading Issues Risk. Trading in ETF shares on an exchange may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the exchange, make trading in the ETF’s shares inadvisable, such as extraordinary market volatility. There can be no assurance that an ETF’s shares will continue to meet the listing requirements of its exchange or will trade with any volume. There is no guarantee that an active secondary market will develop for shares of an ETF. In stressed market conditions, the liquidity of shares of an ETF may begin to mirror the liquidity of the ETF’s underlying portfolio holdings, which can be significantly less liquid than shares of the ETF. This adverse effect on liquidity for the ETF’s shares in turn could lead to differences between the market price of the ETF’s shares and the underlying value of those shares. Market Price Variance Risk. The market prices of shares of an ETF will fluctuate in response to changes in the ETF’s NAV, and supply and demand for ETF shares and will include a “bid-ask spread” charged by the exchange specialists, market makers or other participants that trade the particular security. There may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly. This means that ETF shares may trade at a discount to NAV. The market price of an ETF’s shares may deviate from the value of the ETF’s underlying portfolio holdings, particularly in times of market stress, with the result that investors may pay significantly more or receive significantly less than the underlying value of the shares of the ETF bought or sold. Authorized Participants (“APs”), Market Makers, and Liquidity Providers Risk. ETFs have a limited number of financial institutions that may act as APs. In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, shares of an ETF may trade at a material discount to NAV and possibly face delisting: (i) APs exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other APs step forward to perform these services, or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions. Costs of Buying or Selling Shares of an ETF. Due to the costs of buying or selling shares of an ETF, including brokerage commissions imposed by brokers and bid/ask spreads, frequent trading of shares of an ETF may significantly reduce investment results and an investment in shares of an ETF may not be advisable for investors who anticipate regularly making small investments.

| ETF Structure Risk, Cash Redemption Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Cash Redemption Risk. The Fund may be required to sell or unwind portfolio investments to obtain the cash needed to distribute redemption proceeds. This may cause the Fund to incur certain costs such as brokerage costs, and to recognize capital gains that it might not have recognized if it had made a redemption in-kind. As a result, the Fund may pay out higher annual capital gain distributions than if the in-kind redemption process was used. |
| ETF Structure Risk, Trading Issues Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Trading Issues Risk.

There can be no assurance that an ETF’s shares will continue to meet the listing requirements of its exchange or will trade with any volume. There is no guarantee that an active secondary market will develop for shares of an ETF.

| ETF Structure Risk, Market Price Variance Risk Member | |

|
| ETF Structure Risk, Authorized Participants ("APs") Market Makers, And Liquidity Providers Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Authorized Participants (“APs”), Market Makers, and Liquidity Providers Risk. ETFs have a limited number of financial institutions that may act as APs. In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, shares of an ETF may trade at a material discount to NAV and possibly face delisting: (i) APs exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other APs step forward to perform these services, or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions.
|
| ETF Structure Risk, Costs Of Buying Or Selling Shares Of An ETF Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Costs of Buying or Selling Shares of an ETF. Due to the costs of buying or selling shares of an ETF, including brokerage commissions imposed by brokers and bid/ask spreads, frequent trading of shares of an ETF may significantly reduce investment results and an investment in shares of an ETF may not be advisable for investors who anticipate regularly making small investments.
|
| New Fund Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | New Fund Risk. As of the date of this prospectus, the Fund has no operating history and currently has fewer assets than larger funds. Like other new funds, large inflows and outflows may impact the Fund’s market exposure for limited periods of time. This impact may be positive or negative, depending on the direction of market movement during the period affected.
|
| Bitcoin Investing Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Bitcoin Investing Risk. Issuer-specific attributes of the Reference Asset 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. The iShares® Bitcoin Trust 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 Shares. The Adviser has not made any due diligence inquiry with respect to the publicly available information of the iShares® Bitcoin Trust in connection with this offering. Investors in the Shares will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the shares of the iShares® Bitcoin Trust.
|
| Bitcoin Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Bitcoin Risk. The performance of Bitcoin, and consequently the Fund’s performance through its exposure to Bitcoin, is subject to the risks of the digital assets industry. The trading prices of many digital assets, including bitcoin, have experienced extreme volatility in recent periods and may continue to do so. Extreme volatility in the future, including further declines in the trading prices of bitcoin, could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Shares and the Shares could lose all or substantially all of their value. The value of the Shares is subject to a number of factors relating to the fundamental investment characteristics of bitcoin as a digital asset, including the fact that digital assets are bearer instruments and loss, theft, destruction, or compromise of the associated private keys could result in permanent loss of the asset, and the capabilities and development of blockchain technologies such as the Bitcoin blockchain. Digital assets represent a new and rapidly evolving industry, and the value of the Shares depends on the acceptance of bitcoin. Changes in the governance of a digital asset network may not receive sufficient support from users and miners, which may negatively affect that digital asset network’s ability to grow and respond to challenges.
|
| Risks Related To The Regulation Of Bitcoin Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Risks Related to the Regulation of Bitcoin. Bitcoin and the Bitcoin market are subject to extensive and evolving regulation. Changes in federal, state, or foreign laws, regulations, regulatory interpretations, enforcement priorities, or judicial decisions relating to Bitcoin may adversely affect the value of Bitcoin and, consequently, the value of the Fund's Shares. Bitcoin is generally regarded by U.S. regulators as a digital commodity rather than a security. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") has asserted jurisdiction over Bitcoin as a commodity under the Commodity Exchange Act. In addition, the SEC and its staff have publicly indicated that Bitcoin is not currently considered a security under the federal securities laws. However, such statements do not constitute binding law and may be modified, superseded, or withdrawn in the future.
|
| Digital Assets/Cryptocurrency Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Digital Assets/Cryptocurrency Risk. The performance of the Reference Asset, and consequently the Fund’s performance, is subject to the risks of the digital-assets/cryptocurrency industry. The trading prices of many digital assets, including the Reference Asset, have experienced extreme volatility in recent periods and may continue to do so. Extreme volatility in the future, including further declines in the trading prices of the Reference Asset, could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Fund’s shares and the Shares could lose all or substantially all of their value. The value of the Shares is subject to a number of factors relating to the fundamental investment characteristics of the Reference Asset as digital assets, including the fact that digital assets are bearer instruments and loss, theft, destruction, or compromise of the associated private keys could result in permanent loss of the asset, and the capabilities and development of blockchain technologies. Digital assets represent a new and rapidly evolving industry, and the value of the Shares depends on the acceptance of the Reference Asset. Changes in the governance of a digital-asset network may not receive sufficient support from users and validators, which may negatively affect such network’s ability to grow and respond to challenges. Cryptocurrencies, such as the Reference Asset, are a subset of digital assets designed to act as a medium of exchange. Despite being referred to as “currencies,” crypto assets are not widely accepted as a means of payment, are not backed by any government or central bank, and are not legal tender. The value of digital assets is determined by supply and demand in global markets, which consist primarily of transactions of the respective digital assets on electronic trading platforms or trading venues. Unlike the exchanges for more traditional assets, the regulation of digital-asset trading platforms is highly fragmented. Due to the fragmentation and lack of oversight of these trading venues, there is a heightened potential for fraud and manipulation. Regulation in the U.S. is still developing.
|
| Reference ETP Investing Risk Member | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Reference ETP Investing Risk. Issuer-specific attributes related to Reference ETPs in which the Fund may invest may cause an investment held by the Fund to be more volatile than the market generally. The value of an individual security or asset or a particular type of security or asset may be more volatile than, and may perform differently from, the market as a whole. When the Fund invests in Reference ETPs it will incur costs associated with such funds, including management fees and fees and expenses borne by shareholders of such Reference ETPs. The value of shares in a Reference ETP may not replicate the performance of the Reference Asset, and the Fund’s investments in Reference ETPs will not perform exactly the same as the Reference Asset.
|
| Risk Lose Money [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | As with all funds, a shareholder is subject to the risk that his or her investment could lose money. |
| Risk Not Insured Depository Institution [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) or any government agency. |
| Risk Nondiversified Status [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Non-Diversification Risk. The Fund is considered to be non-diversified, which means that it may invest more of its assets in the securities of a single ETF or a smaller number of ETFs than if it were a diversified fund. To the extent the Fund invests a significant percentage of its assets in a limited number of ETFs, the Fund is subject to the risks of investing in those few ETFs and may be more susceptible to a single adverse economic or regulatory occurrence. As a result, changes in the market value of a single security could cause greater fluctuations in the value of Shares than would occur in a diversified fund. Because the Fund may be exposed only to a single ETF, it may experience more volatility than a traditional pooled investment vehicle which diversifies risk or the market as a whole. |
