Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's performance. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 was 303% of the average value of its portfolio.

Strategy [Heading] rr_StrategyHeading <p style="margin: 0px"><b>Principal Investment Strategies</b></p>
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing in a portfolio of exchange traded funds (“ETFs”) selected using Day Hagan Asset Management’s (the Advisor”) proprietary quantitative asset allocation models.

 

The Advisor typically selects ETFs for the Fund that invest across a broad range of global asset classes including, but not limited to U.S., emerging market and other international stocks; U.S. and international bonds and U.S. and international real estate, commodities and currencies. Equity securities held by ETFs in which the Fund invests may include any market capitalization, style, class or sector. In considering ETFs that invest in fixed income securities, the Advisor may utilize fixed income ETFs that represent broad-based fixed income indices, as well as more specific and narrow sectors, maturities and credit ratings. The Advisor may invest in fixed income securities of any credit quality or maturity.

 

The Fund may also write covered calls and cash secured put options on ETFs, indexes and equities for the purpose of enhancing returns, establishing a position or to seek to reduce downside risk.

 

The Advisor’s quantitative models incorporate time-tested indicators that mathematically evaluate economic fundamentals, price-trends and valuation to determine what the Advisor believes are the most attractive asset classes. The proprietary models quantitatively interpret the ever-changing market conditions and adjust the portfolio by overweighting asset classes the Advisor believes have the greatest probability of success and underweighting areas of weakness. The models may require frequent buying and selling of the Fund’s investments.
Risk [Heading] rr_RiskHeading <p style="margin: 0px"><b>Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund</b></p>
Risk Narrative [Text Block] rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock

As with any mutual fund, there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. Investment markets are unpredictable and there will be certain market conditions where the Fund will not meet its investment objective and will lose money. The Fund’s net asset value and returns will vary and you could lose money on your investment in the Fund and those losses could be significant.

 

The following summarizes the principal risks of investing in the Fund. These risks could adversely affect the net asset value, total return and the value of the Fund and your investment.

 

• Acquired Fund Limitations and Expenses Risks. The Fund will invest in other investment companies, primarily ETFs. The cost of investing in the Fund will generally be higher than the cost of investing directly in other investment company shares. Investors in the Fund will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the underlying investment companies in which the Fund invests in addition to the Fund’s direct fees and expenses. The Fund also will likely incur brokerage costs when it purchases and sells ETFs. Furthermore, investments in other investment companies could affect the timing, amount and character of distributions to shareholders and, therefore, may increase the amount of taxes payable by investors in the Fund.

 

• Acquired Fund Risk. Because the Fund invests in other investment companies such as ETFs, the value of your investment will fluctuate in response to the performance of the acquired funds. Investing in acquired funds involves certain additional expenses and certain tax results that would not arise if you invested directly in the acquired funds.

 

• Commodity Risk. Commodity-related risks include production risks caused by unfavorable weather, animal and plant disease, geologic and environmental factors. Commodity-related risks also include unfavorable changes in government regulation such as tariffs, embargoes or burdensome production rules and restrictions.

 

• Currency Risk. The Fund’s net asset value could decline as a result of changes in the exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar. Additionally, certain foreign countries may impose restrictions on the ability of issuers of foreign securities to make payment of principal and interest to investors located outside the country, due to blockage of foreign currency exchanges or otherwise.

 

• Emerging Markets Risk. Investing in emerging markets involves not only the risks described above with respect to investing in foreign securities, but also other risks, including exposure to economic structures that are generally less diverse and mature, and to political systems that can be expected to have less stability, than those of developed countries. The typically small size of the markets of securities of issuers located in emerging markets and the possibility of a low or nonexistent volume of trading in those securities may also result in a lack of liquidity and in price volatility of those securities.

 

• Fixed Income Risk. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of bond ETFs owned by the Fund. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default) and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments).

 

• Foreign Exposure Risk. Special risks associated with investments in foreign markets may include less liquidity, greater volatility, less developed or less efficient trading markets, lack of comprehensive company information, political instability and differing auditing and legal standards.

 

• 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.

 

• Management Risk. The Advisor’s asset allocation models, which attempt to evaluate the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of various asset classes and particular ETFs, or other securities and derivatives in which the Fund invests, may prove to be incorrect and there is no guarantee that the model will produce the desired results.

 

• Options Risk. There are risks associated with the sale of call and put options. As the seller (writer) of a call option, the Fund assumes the risk of a decline in the market price of the underlying security below the purchase price of the underlying security less the premium received, and gives up the opportunity for gain on the underlying security above the exercise option price.

 

• Real Estate Risk. The Fund is subject to the risks of the real estate market as a whole, such as taxation, regulations and economic and political factors that negatively impact the real estate market. These may include decreases in real estate values, overbuilding, increases in operating costs, interest rates and property taxes. In addition, some real estate related investments are not fully diversified and are subject to the risks associated with financing a limited number of projects.

 

• Sector Risk. The Fund may be subject to the risk that its assets are invested in a particular sector or group of sectors in the economy and as a result, the value of the Fund may be adversely impacted by events or developments in a sector or group of sectors. These events or developments might include additional government regulation, resource shortages or surpluses, changes in consumer demands or improvements in technology that make products or services of a particular sector less desirable.

 

• Small and Mid Capitalization Stock Risk. The earnings and prospects of small and mid capitalization companies are more volatile than larger companies. Smaller-sized companies may experience higher failure rates than larger companies, normally have a lower trading volume than larger companies, which may tend to make their market price fall more disproportionately than larger companies in response to selling pressures, and may have limited markets, product lines or financial resources and may lack management experience.

 

• Stock Market Risk. Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as domestic economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels and political events affect the securities markets.

 

• Tracking Risks. Investment in the Fund should be made with the understanding that the ETFs in which the Fund invests will not be able to replicate exactly the performance of the indices or sector they track because the total return generated by the securities will be reduced by transaction costs incurred in adjusting the actual balance of the securities. In addition, the ETFs in which the Fund invests will incur expenses not incurred by their applicable indices. Certain securities comprising the indices tracked by the ETFs may, from time to time, temporarily be unavailable, which may further impede the ETFs’ ability to track their applicable indices.

 

• Turnover Risk. The models used by the Advisor may require a higher portfolio turnover, which may result in higher transactional and brokerage costs. Active trading of securities may also increase the Fund’s realized capital gains or losses, which may affect the taxes you pay as a Fund shareholder.

Strategy Narrative [Text Block] rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing primarily in the equity securities of dividend paying domestic companies that the Fund’s sub-advisor, DH Logix, LLC (the “Sub-Advisor”) believes to be under-valued based on its proprietary equity selection model. Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets plus the amount of borrowings for investment purposes, will be invested in the securities of dividend paying companies. While the Fund may invest in companies of any market capitalization without limitation, the Sub-Advisor expects that under normal market conditions its equity selection model will create a portfolio focused on large capitalization companies. The equity securities in which the Fund may invest include common stock and real estate investment trusts (“REITs”).

 

The Sub-Advisor selects securities using the Sub-Advisor’s proprietary equity selection model. The Sub-Advisor believes that purchasing securities of strong companies within strong industries provides a higher probability of success. The Fund’s holdings are determined by screening companies for measures of balance sheet strength, fundamental soundness, and consistent (uncut) dividends. The Sub-Advisor believes that these screens reflect the probability that the dividend stream will continue.

 

The Sub-Advisor then classifies the companies selected by the screening process that are related in terms of their primary business activities into industries. The Sub-Advisor believes that stocks within the same industry often rise and fall as a group because similar overlying economic and valuation factors exist for all members of the industry. Additionally, the Sub-Advisor determines whether it believes each industry has an adequate number of underlying companies that pass the screening process. Industries with less than four underlying companies that pass the screening process will likely not be represented in the portfolio due to diversification and risk management considerations.

 

The Sub-Adviser next evaluates the relative attractiveness of those industries by using its proprietary selection model, which uses historical dividend yield data. Dividend yield is a financial ratio that shows how much a company pays out in dividends each year relative to its share price and is a way to measure how much cash flow an investor is getting for each dollar invested in an equity position. When an industry is paying a historically high dividend yield, the industry and the companies in that industry are considered by the Sub-Advisor to be priced at a low price relative to the dividend payout and are attractive. Conversely, when an industry has a historically low dividend yield, the Sub-Advisor believes the industry and the companies in that industry are priced too high relative to the dividend payout and are unattractive. The Fund generally will invest less than 20% of its assets in any single industry.

 

The Sub-Advisor’s investment model is based on the belief that dividend yields provide a historically objective and controlled means of valuation. The research process utilizes a “weight-of-the-evidence” approach, which is designed to provide a historically-based perspective on current risks and rewards. The process provides the flexibility to seize opportunities in the marketplace in a rational, quantitative and un-emotional manner.
Strategy Portfolio Concentration [Text] rr_StrategyPortfolioConcentration Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets plus the amount of borrowings for investment purposes, will be invested in the securities of dividend paying companies.
Risk [Heading] rr_RiskHeading <p style="margin: 0px"><b>Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund</b></p>
Risk Narrative [Text Block] rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock

As with any mutual fund, there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. Investment markets are unpredictable and there will be certain market conditions where the Fund will not meet its investment objective and will lose money. The Fund’s net asset value and returns will vary and you could lose money on your investment in the Fund and those losses could be significant.

 

The following summarizes the principal risks of investing in the Fund. These risks could adversely affect the net asset value, total return and the value of the Fund and your investment.

 

• Equity Security Risk. Common stocks are susceptible to general stock market fluctuations and to volatile increases and decreases in value as market confidence in and perceptions of their issuers change. Investor perceptions are based on various and unpredictable factors, including expectations regarding government, economic, monetary and fiscal policies; inflation and interest rates; economic expansion or contraction and global or regional political, economic and banking crises.

 

• Management Risk. The portfolio managers’ judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of particular stocks or other securities in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and there is no guarantee that the portfolio managers’ judgment will produce the desired results.

 

• Market Risk. Overall stock market risks may also affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as domestic economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels and political events affect the securities markets.

 

• Real Estate Risk. The Fund is subject to the risks of the real estate market as a whole, such as taxation, regulations and economic and political factors that negatively impact the real estate market and the direct ownership of real estate. These may include decreases in real estate values, overbuilding, rising operating costs, interest rates and property taxes. In addition, some real estate related investments are not fully diversified and are subject to the risks associated with financing a limited number of projects. REITs are heavily dependent upon the management team and are subject to heavy cash flow dependency, defaults by borrowers and self-liquidation.

 

• Security Risk. The value of the Fund may decrease in response to the activities and financial prospects of an individual security in the Fund’s portfolio.

 

• Small and Mid Capitalization Stock Risk. To the extent the Fund invests in the stocks of small and mid-sized companies, the Fund may be subject to additional risks, including the risk that earnings and prospects of these companies are more volatile than larger companies.

Performance Narrative [Text Block] rr_PerformanceNarrativeTextBlock

The bar chart and accompanying table shown below provide an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing the total return of its Class A shares for each full calendar year, and by showing how its average annual returns compare over time with those of a broad measure of market performance. Although Class C and Class I shares would have similar annual returns to Class A shares because the classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities, the returns for Class C and Class I shares would be different from Class A shares because Class C and Class I shares have different expenses than Class A shares.
