Active Management Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Active Management Risk. The adviser’s judgments about an investment may prove to be incorrect or fail to have the intended results, which could adversely impact the Fund’s performance.

 

Equity Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Equity Risk. The NAV of the Fund will fluctuate based on changes in the value of the equity securities held by the Fund. Equity prices can fall rapidly in response to developments affecting a specific company or industry, or to changing economic, political or market conditions.

 

BDC Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○BDC Risk. BDCs have little or no operating history and may carry risks similar to those of a private equity or venture capital fund. BDC company securities are not redeemable at the option of the shareholder and they may trade in the market at a discount to their net asset value. A significant portion of a BDC’s investments are recorded at fair value as determined by its board of directors which may create uncertainty as to the value of the BDC’s investments. Non-traded BDCs are illiquid and it may not be possible to redeem shares or to do so without paying a substantial penalty. Publicly-traded BDCs usually trade at a discount to their net asset value because they invest in unlisted securities and have limited access to capital markets.

 

Convertible Securities Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Convertible Securities Risk. Convertible securities subject the Fund to the risks associated with both fixed-income securities and equity securities. If a convertible security’s investment value is greater than its conversion value, its price likely increase when interest rates fall and decrease when interest rates rise. If the conversion value exceeds the investment value, the price of the convertible security will tend to fluctuate directly with the price of the underlying equity security.

 

MLP and MLP-Related Securities Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○MLP and MLP-Related Securities Risk. Investments in MLPs and MLP-related securities involve risks different from those of investing in common stock including risks related to limited control and limited rights to vote on matters affecting the MLP or MLP-related security, risks related to potential conflicts of interest between an MLP and the MLP’s general partner, cash flow risks, dilution risks (which could occur if the MLP raises capital and then invests it in projects whose return fails to exceed the cost of capital raised) and risks related to the general partner’s limited call right. MLPs and MLP-related securities are generally considered interest-rate sensitive investments. During periods of interest rate volatility, these investments may not provide attractive returns. Depending on the state of interest rates in general, the use of MLPs or MLP-related securities could enhance or harm the overall performance of the Fund.

 

MLPs, typically, do not pay U.S. federal income tax at the partnership level. Instead, each partner is allocated a share of the partnership’s income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses. A change in current tax law or in the underlying business mix of a given MLP could result in an MLP being treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which would result in such MLP being required to pay U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income. The classification of an MLP as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes would have the effect of reducing the amount of cash available for distribution by the MLP. Thus, if any of the MLPs owned by the Fund were treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it could result in a reduction of the value of your investment in the Fund and lower income, as compared to an MLP that is not taxed as a corporation.

 

Preferred Stock Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Preferred Stock Risk. The value of preferred stocks will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of preferred stock. Preferred stocks are also subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that an issuer of preferred stock will fail to make its dividend payments.

 

REIT Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○REIT Risk. The value of the Fund’s investments in REITs may change in response to changes in the real estate market such as declines in the value of real estate, lack of available capital or financing opportunities, and increases in property taxes or operating costs. Shareholders of the Fund will indirectly be subject to the fees and expenses of the individual REITs in which the Fund invests.

 

When-Issued Securities Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○When-Issued Securities Risk. The price or yield obtained in a when-issued transaction may be less favorable than the price or yield available in the market when the securities delivery takes place. Also, a when-issued security transaction has potentially more counterparty risk than a regularly settling trade because of the potentially extended settlement period, which increases the risk that the other party to the when-issued transaction fails to consummate the trade, resulting in a loss to the Fund or missed opportunity to profit from the trade.

 

Cash or Cash Equivalents Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Cash or Cash Equivalents Risk. At any time, the Fund may have significant investments in cash or cash equivalents. When a substantial portion of a portfolio is held in cash or cash equivalents, there is the risk that the value of the cash account, including interest, will not keep pace with inflation, thus reducing purchasing power over time. Additionally, in rising markets, holding cash or cash equivalents may adversely affect the Fund’s performance and the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

 

Commodities Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Commodities Risk. Investments linked to commodity derivatives can be highly volatile compared to investments in traditional securities, and funds holding instruments linked to commodity derivatives may experience large losses. The value of instruments linked to commodity derivatives may be affected by market movements, commodity benchmarks, volatility, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry, or commodity.

 

Counterparty Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Counterparty Risk. A financial institution or other counterparty with whom the Fund does business, or that underwrites, distributes, or guarantees any investments or contracts that the Fund owns or is otherwise exposed to, including the counterparty to an OTC derivatives contract, may decline in financial health and become unable to honor its commitments. This could cause losses for the Fund or could delay the return or delivery of collateral or other assets to the Fund.

 

Credit Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Credit Risk. The Fund will lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a credit instrument held by the Fund goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal when due.

 

Cybersecurity Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Cybersecurity Risk. Cybersecurity incidents may allow an unauthorized party to gain access to Fund assets or proprietary information, or cause the Fund, the adviser, and/or other service providers (including custodians and financial intermediaries) to suffer data breaches or data corruption. Additionally, cybersecurity failures or breaches of the electronic systems of the Fund, the adviser, the Fund’s other service providers, market makers, Authorized Participants (“APs”), the Exchange, or the issuers of securities in which the Fund invests have the ability to disrupt and negatively affect the Fund’s business operations, including the ability to purchase and sell Shares, potentially resulting in financial losses to the Fund and its shareholders.

 

Derivatives Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Derivatives Risk. The Fund’s use of derivatives, including options and futures, may reduce the Fund’s returns and/or increase the volatility of the Fund’s net asset value. Derivatives may be difficult to value and may at times be highly illiquid, and the Fund may not be able to close out or sell a derivative position at a particular time or at an anticipated price. Derivative investments will typically increase the Fund’s exposure to principal risks to which it is otherwise exposed, and may expose the Fund to additional risks, including liquidity risk, interest rate risk, counterparty risk equity market risk, credit risk and management risk.

 

Futures Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Futures Risk. The successful use of futures contracts draws upon the adviser’s skill and experience with respect to such instruments and are subject to special risk considerations. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are (a) the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the instruments held by the Fund and the price of the futures contract; (b) possible lack of a liquid secondary market; (c) investments in futures contracts involves leverage, which means a small percentage of assets in futures can have a disproportionately large impact on the Fund (d) losses caused by unanticipated market movements; (e) the adviser’s inability to predict correctly the direction of securities prices, interest rates, currency exchange rates and other economic factors.

 

Options Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Options Risk. There are risks associated with the sale and purchase of call and put options. As a seller (writer) of a put option, the Fund will tend to lose money if the value of the reference index or security falls below the strike price. As the seller (writer) of a call option, the Fund will tend to lose money if the value of the reference index or security rises above the strike price. As the buyer of a put or call option, the Fund risks losing the entire premium invested in the option if the Fund does not exercise the option.

 

Swaps Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Swaps Risk. Swaps are subject to tracking risk because they may not be perfect substitutes for the instruments they are intended to hedge or replace. Over the counter swaps are subject to counterparty default. Leverage inherent in derivatives will tend to magnify the Fund's losses.

 

Emerging Markets Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Emerging Markets Risk. Investing in emerging markets involves not only the risks described above with respect to foreign investments, but also other risks, including exposure to economic structures that are generally less diverse and mature, limited availability and reliability of information material to an investment decision, greater dependence on international trade or development assistance, and exposure to political systems that can be expected to have less stability than those of developed countries. The Fund defines emerging markets as countries experiencing rapid economic growth, increasing per capita income, developing financial systems, and potential for high growth. The market for the securities of issuers in emerging markets typically is small, and a low or non-existent trading volume in those securities may result in a lack of liquidity and price volatility.

 

ETF Structure Risks [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●ETF Structure Risks. The Fund is an ETF and, as a result of its structure, it is exposed to the following risks:

 

Not Individually Redeemable [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Not Individually Redeemable. The Fund’s shares (“Shares”) are not redeemable by retail investors and may be redeemed only by Authorized Participants at net asset value (“NAV”) and only in Creation Units. A retail investor generally incurs brokerage costs when selling shares.

 

Trading Issues [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Trading Issues. Trading in Shares on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”) may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the Exchange, make trading in Shares inadvisable, such as extraordinary market volatility. There can be no assurance that Shares will continue to meet the listing requirements of the Exchange which may result in the Shares being delisted. An active trading market for the Shares may not be developed or maintained. If the Shares are traded outside a collateralized settlement system, the number of financial institutions that can act as Authorized Participants that can post collateral on an agency basis is limited, which may limit the market for the Shares.

 

Market Price Variance Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Market Price Variance Risk. The market prices of Shares will fluctuate in response to changes in NAV and supply and demand for Shares and will include a “bid-ask spread” charged by the exchange specialists, market makers or other participants that trade in the Shares. There may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly. This means that Shares may trade at a premium or discount to NAV.

 

In times of market stress, market makers may step away from their role market making in the Shares and in executing trades, which can lead to differences between the market value of the Shares and the Shares’ NAV.

 

The market price of the Shares may deviate from NAV, particularly during times of market stress, with the result that investors may pay significantly more or significantly less for Shares than NAV, which is reflected in the bid and ask price for the Shares or in the closing price.

 

In stressed market conditions, the market for the Shares may become less liquid in response to the deteriorating liquidity of the Fund’s portfolio. This adverse effect on the liquidity of the Shares may, in turn, lead to differences between the market value of the Shares and NAV.

 

Authorized Participant Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Authorized Participant Risk. Only an Authorized Participant may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund. The Fund has a limited number of institutions that may act as an Authorized Participant on an agency basis (i.e., on behalf of other market participants). To the extent that Authorized Participants exit the business or are unable to proceed with creation or redemption orders with respect to the Fund and no other Authorized Participant is able to step forward to create or redeem Creation Units, Fund shares may be more likely to trade at a premium or discount to net asset value and possibly face trading halts or delisting. Authorized Participant concentration risk may be heightened for securities or instruments that have lower trading volumes.

 

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).

 

Bank Loans Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Bank Loans Risk. The market for bank loans may not be highly liquid and the Fund may have difficulty selling them. These investments expose the Fund to the credit risk of both the financial institution and the underlying borrower.

 

Floating Rate Securities [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Floating Rate Securities. Changes in short-term market interest rates will directly affect the yield on the shares of a fund whose investments are invested in floating rate debt securities. If short-term market interest rates fall, the yield on the Fund’s shares will also fall. Conversely, when short-term market interest rates rise, because of the lag between changes in such short-term rates and the resetting of the floating rates on the floating rate debt securities in the Fund’s portfolio, the impact of rising rates will be delayed to the extent of such lag.

 

Junk Bond Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Junk Bond Risk. Lower-quality bonds, known as "high yield" or "junk" bonds, present greater risk than bonds of higher quality, including an increased risk of default. An economic downturn or period of rising interest rates could adversely affect the market for these bonds and reduce the Fund's ability to sell its bonds. The lack of a liquid market for these bonds could decrease the Fund's share price.

 

MBS and ABS Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○MBS and ABS Risk. When the Fund invests in asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities, the Fund is subject to the risk that, if the underlying borrowers fail to pay interest or repay principal, the assets backing these securities may not be sufficient to support payments on the securities.

 

Loan Participation Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Loan Participation Risk. A loan participation agreement involves the purchase of a share of a loan made by a bank to a company in return for a corresponding share of borrower’s principal and interest payments. In addition to the risks typically associated with fixed income securities, loan participations carry other risks, including the risk of insolvency of the lending bank or other intermediary. Loan participations may be unsecured or not fully collateralized, may be subject to restrictions on resale and sometimes trade infrequently on the secondary market.

 

U.S. Government Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○U.S. Government Risk. U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government and generally have negligible credit risk. Securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises may or may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.

 

Foreign Currency Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Foreign Currency Risk. If the Fund invests in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, foreign currencies, it will be subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar. As a result, the Fund’s investments in foreign currency-denominated securities may reduce the Fund’s returns.

 

Foreign Exchange Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Foreign Exchange Risk. Because some securities held by the Fund may trade on foreign exchanges that may be closed when the Fund’s primary listing exchange is open, there are likely to be deviations between the current price of a security and the security’s last quoted price from the closed foreign market. This may result in premiums and discounts that are greater than those experienced by fully domestic ETFs.

 

Foreign Investment Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Foreign Investment Risk. Because the Fund’s investments may include foreign securities, the Fund is subject to risks beyond those associated with investing in domestic securities. Foreign companies are generally not subject to the same regulatory requirements of U.S. companies thereby resulting in less publicly available information about these companies. In addition, foreign accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards generally differ from those applicable to U.S. companies.

 

Growth Investing Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Growth Investing Risk. Growth stocks can be volatile for several reasons. Since those companies usually invest a high portion of earnings in their businesses, they may lack the dividends of value stocks that can help to cushion stock prices in a falling market. The prices of growth stocks are based largely on projections of the issuer’s future earnings and revenues. If a company’s earnings or revenues fall short of expectations, its stock price may fall dramatically.

 

Hedging Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Hedging Risk. Options used by the Fund to reduce volatility and generate returns may not perform as intended. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s option strategy will be effective. It may expose the Fund to losses, e.g., option premiums, to which it would not have otherwise been exposed. Further, the option strategy may not fully protect the Fund against declines in the value of its portfolio securities.

 

Investment Themes Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Investment Themes Risk. The Fund’s investment program depends on the Adviser’s identification and development of global or regional investment themes, and the Fund’s performance may suffer if such themes, which can be inherently challenging to identify, are not well identified, or do not unfold as anticipated. Failure to correctly identify or develop the themes that will guide the Fund’s portfolio investments, or the failure of a theme to unfold in the way the Adviser anticipates, may result from many causes, including the following: governments or others may decide to oppose or delay certain economic, social or political developments that are the basis of investment themes; demographic or economic data necessary to understand correctly the way in which certain themes may unfold in some countries may be incorrect or incomplete; development of themes and their longevity may require attention to subtle cultural factors not always apparent to outside observers; or social and political changes or natural disasters in some parts of the world may alter the underlying conditions or affect the availability of natural resources necessary to an emerging theme.

 

Limited History Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Limited History Risk. The Fund is a new ETF and has a limited history of operations for investors to evaluate. Investors in the Fund bear the risk that the Fund may not be successful in implementing its investment strategies, may be unable to implement certain of its investment strategies or may fail to attract sufficient assets, any of which could result in the Fund being liquidated and terminated at any time without shareholder approval and at a time that may not be favorable for all shareholders. Such a liquidation could have negative tax consequences for shareholders and will cause shareholders to incur expenses of liquidation.

 

Liquidity Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Liquidity Risk. In certain situations, it may be difficult or impossible to sell an investment in an orderly fashion at an acceptable price.

 

Long/Short Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Long/Short Risk. The Fund seeks long exposure to certain securities and short exposure to certain other securities. There is no guarantee that the returns on the Fund’s long or short positions will produce positive returns, and the Fund could lose money if either or both the Fund’s long and short positions produce negative returns.

 

Market and Geopolitical Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Market and Geopolitical Risk. The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters, climate change and climate-related events, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, international conflicts, regulatory events and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on both the U.S. and global financial markets.

 

Market Capitalization Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Market Capitalization Risk.

 

Large-Capitalization Investing [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Large-Capitalization Investing. The securities of large-capitalization companies may be relatively mature compared to smaller companies and therefore subject to slower growth during times of economic expansion. Large-capitalization companies may also be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges, such as changes in technology and consumer tastes.

 

Mid-Capitalization Investing [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Mid-Capitalization Investing. The securities of mid-capitalization companies may be more vulnerable to adverse issuer, market, political, or economic developments than securities of large-capitalization companies. The securities of mid-capitalization companies generally trade in lower volumes and are subject to greater and more unpredictable price changes than large-capitalization stocks or the stock market as a whole.

 

Small-Capitalization Investing [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
○Small-Capitalization Investing. The securities of small-capitalization companies may be more vulnerable to adverse issuer, market, political, or economic developments than securities of large- or mid-capitalization companies. The securities of small-capitalization companies generally trade in lower volumes and are subject to greater and more unpredictable price changes than large- or mid-capitalization stocks or the stock market as a whole. There is typically less publicly available information concerning smaller-capitalization companies than for larger, more established companies.

 

Portfolio Turnover Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Portfolio Turnover Risk. Because the Fund may “turn over” some or all of its portfolio frequently, the Fund may incur high levels of transaction costs, performance that is lower than expected and potentially greater tax exposure.

 

Sector Focus Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Sector Focus Risk. To the extent the Fund invests more heavily in particular sectors of the economy, its performance will be especially sensitive to developments that significantly affect those sectors.

 

Short Selling Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Short Selling Risk. Short selling involves the sale of securities borrowed from a third party. The short seller profits if the borrowed security’s price declines. If a shorted security increases in value, a higher price must be paid to buy the stock back to cover the short sale, resulting in a loss. The Fund may incur expenses related to short selling, including compensation, interest or dividends, and transaction costs payable to the security lender, whether the price of the shorted security increases or decreases. The amount the Fund could lose on a short sale is theoretically unlimited. Short selling also involves counterparty risk – the risk associated with the third-party ceasing operations or failing to sell the security back.

 

Tax Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Tax Risk. The Fund’s investments in derivatives (including options and futures) may be subject to the federal tax rules applicable to straddles under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). If positions held by the Fund were treated as “straddles” for federal income tax purposes, or the Fund’s risk of loss with respect to a position was otherwise diminished as set forth in Treasury regulations, dividends on stocks that are a part of such positions would not constitute qualified dividend income. In addition, straddles are subject to certain rules that may affect the amount, character, and timing of the Fund’s recognition of gains and losses.

 

Underlying Funds Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Underlying Funds Risk. The other investment companies including mutual funds, ETFs and closed-end funds (“Underlying Funds”) in which the Fund invests are subject to investment advisory and other expenses, which will be indirectly paid by the Fund. As a result, the cost of investing in the Fund will be higher than the cost of investing directly in the Underlying Funds.

 

Value Investing Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Value Investing Risk. Because the Fund may utilize a value style of investing, the Fund could suffer losses or produce poor results relative to other funds, even in a rising market, if the Adviser’s assessment of a company’s value or prospects for exceeding earnings expectations or market conditions is incorrect.

 

Risk Lose Money [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block] As with any investment, there is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your investment in the Fund.
Risk Nondiversified Status [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Non-Diversification Risk. Because the Fund is non-diversified and may invest a greater portion of its assets in fewer issuers than a diversified fund, changes in the market value of a single portfolio holding could cause greater fluctuations in the Fund’s share price than would occur in a diversified fund. This may increase the Fund’s volatility and cause the performance of a single portfolio holding or a relatively small number of portfolio holdings to have a greater impact on the Fund’s performance.
