Allocation Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Allocation Risk: The allocation of investments among different investment styles, such as equity or debt, growth or value, U.S. or non‑U.S. securities, or diversification strategies, may have a more significant effect on the Fund’s net asset value, or NAV, when one of these investments is performing more poorly than another.
Credit Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Credit Risk: An issuer or guarantor of a fixed-income security, or the counterparty to a derivatives or other contract, may be unable or unwilling to make timely payments of interest or principal, or to otherwise honor its obligations. The issuer or guarantor may default, causing a loss of the full principal amount of a security and accrued interest. The degree of risk for a particular security may be reflected in its credit rating. There is the possibility that the credit rating of a fixed-income security may be downgraded after purchase, which may adversely affect the value of the security. Investments in fixed-income securities with lower ratings (commonly known as “junk bonds”) are subject to a higher probability that an issuer will default or fail to meet its payment obligations.
High Yield Debt Securities Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
High Yield Debt Securities Risk: Investments in fixed-income securities with lower ratings (commonly known as “junk bonds”) tend to have a higher probability that an issuer will default or fail to meet its payment obligations. These securities may be subject to greater price volatility due to such factors as specific corporate developments, interest rate sensitivity, negative perceptions of the junk bond market generally and less secondary market liquidity.
Interest Rate Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Interest Rate Risk: Changes in interest rates will affect the value of the Fund’s investments in fixed-income securities. When interest rates rise, the value of existing investments in fixed-income securities tends to fall and this decrease in value may not be offset by higher income from new investments. Interest rate risk is generally greater for fixed-income securities with longer maturities or durations. Changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets, may result in heightened market volatility and may detract from Fund performance. In addition, changes in monetary policy may exacerbate the risks associated with changing interest rates.
Inflation Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Inflation Risk: This 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 value of the Fund’s assets can decline as can the value of the Fund’s distributions. This risk is significantly greater for fixed-income securities with longer maturities.
Foreign Non U S Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Foreign (Non‑U.S.) Risk: Investments in securities of non‑U.S. issuers may involve more risk than those of U.S. issuers. These securities may fluctuate more widely in price and may be more difficult to trade due to adverse market, economic, political, regulatory or other factors.
Currency Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Currency Risk: Fluctuations in currency exchange rates may negatively affect the value of the Fund’s investments or reduce its returns.
Emerging Market Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Emerging Market Risk: Investments in emerging market countries may have more risks than investments in other foreign countries because the markets are less developed, less liquid and are subject to increased potential for market manipulation and increased economic, political, regulatory or other uncertainties.
Alternative Investments Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Alternative Investments Risk: Many alternative investments can be volatile and may be illiquid. Their performance may have little correlation with the performance of equity or fixed-income markets, and they may not perform in accordance with expectations.
Capitalization Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Capitalization Risk: Investments in small- and mid‑capitalization companies may be more volatile than investments in large-capitalization companies. Investments in small-capitalization companies may have additional risks because these companies have limited product lines, markets, or financial resources.
Derivatives Risks [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Derivatives Risk: Derivatives may be difficult to price or unwind and leveraged so that small changes may produce disproportionate losses for the Fund. A short position in a derivative instrument involves the risk of a theoretically unlimited increase in the value of the underlying asset, reference rate or index, which could cause the Fund to suffer a potentially unlimited loss. Derivatives, especially over‑the‑counter derivatives, are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the counterparty (the party on the other side of the transaction) on a derivative transaction will be unable or unwilling to honor its contractual obligations to the Fund.
Leverage Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Leverage Risk: To the extent the Fund uses leveraging techniques, its NAV may be more volatile because leverage tends to exaggerate the effect of changes in interest rates and any increase or decrease in the value of the Fund’s investments.
Commodity Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Commodity Risk: Investing in commodities and commodity-linked derivative instruments may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. The value of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be affected by overall market movements, commodity index volatility, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, tariffs and international economic, political and regulatory developments.
Subsidiary Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Subsidiary Risk: By investing in the All Market Total Return Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the All Market Total Return Subsidiary. The derivatives and other investments held by the All Market Total Return Subsidiary are generally similar to those that are permitted to be held by the Fund and are subject to the same risks that apply to similar investments if held directly by the Fund. The All Market Total Return Subsidiary is not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and, unless otherwise noted in this Prospectus, is not subject to all of the investor protections of the 1940 Act. However, the Fund wholly owns and controls the All Market Total Return Subsidiary, and the Fund and the All Market Total Return Subsidiary are managed by the Adviser, making it unlikely the All Market Total Return Subsidiary will take actions contrary to the interests of the Fund or its shareholders. In addition, changes in federal tax laws applicable to the Fund or interpretations thereof could limit the Fund’s ability to gain exposure to commodities investments through investments in the All Market Total Return Subsidiary.
Short Sale Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Short Sale Risk: Short sales involve the risk that the Fund will incur a loss by subsequently buying a security at a higher price than the price at which it sold the security. The amount of such loss is theoretically unlimited, as it will be based on the increase in value of the security sold short. In contrast, the risk of loss from a long position is limited to the Fund’s investment in the security, because the price of the security cannot fall below zero. The Fund may not always be able to close out a short position on favorable terms.
Active Trading Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Active Trading Risk: The Fund expects to engage in active and frequent trading of its portfolio securities and its portfolio turnover rate may greatly exceed 100%. A higher rate of portfolio turnover increases transaction costs, which may negatively affect the Fund’s return. In addition, a high rate of portfolio turnover may result in substantial short-term gains, which may have adverse tax consequences for Fund shareholders.
Management Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Management Risk: The Fund is subject to management risk because it is an actively-managed investment fund. The Adviser will apply its investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the Fund, but there is no guarantee that its techniques will produce the intended results. Some of these techniques may incorporate, or rely upon, quantitative models, but there is no guarantee that these models will generate accurate forecasts, reduce risk or otherwise perform as expected.
Market Risks [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
•  
Market Risk: The value of the Fund’s assets will fluctuate as the market or markets in which the Fund invests fluctuate. The value of the Fund’s investments may decline, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, simply because of economic changes or other local, regional or global events, including public health crises (including the occurrence of a contagious disease or illness), terrorism, war, changing interest rate levels, the imposition of new or additional tariffs, or global conflicts, any of which can affect large portions of the securities markets. It includes the risk that a particular style of investing may be underperforming the market generally.
