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 rate 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.  During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 263.61% of the average value of its portfolio.

This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem (or you hold) all of your shares at the end of those periods.  The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. The Example includes the Fund's contractual expense limitation through September 30, 2019. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Strategy [Heading] rr_StrategyHeading PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock

The Fund intends to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in a portfolio of common stocks of companies that the Fund's investment sub-advisor, Cold Creek Capital, Inc.  (the "Sub-Advisor"), believes have above-average future growth potential relative to their peers.

 

As a matter of investment policy, the Fund will invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of net assets in small cap companies (those with market capitalizations of less than $6 billion) traded on any United States stock exchange or over-the-counter market ( the "Universe"). The Universe is not limited by industry segmentation or sector. The Fund may become concentrated in certain sectors from time to time. As of May 31, 2018, the Fund was principally invested in the consumer discretionary, health care, and information technology sectors.

 

The Sub-Advisor generally selects common stocks based on fundamental, bottom up research. The Sub-Advisor focuses on those companies it believes have strong business history and prospects for the future, marketable products that stand out in their respective markets, and proven and capable management teams. In fundamental, bottom-up investing, the analysis of a security focuses on a specific company and its fundamentals, rather than on the industry in which that company operates or on the greater economy as a whole. Fundamental analysis is a method of evaluating a security in an attempt to assess its intrinsic value, by examining related economic, financial, and other qualitative and quantitative factors. 

 

The Fund will utilize stop loss thresholds of 20% or less, except in cases where the Sub-Advisor feels the threshold has been breached due to abnormal market conditions unrelated in the longer term to the stock in question. A stop loss threshold is when the Fund's exposure to a security is reduced after reaching a certain threshold of cumulative losses (such as the 20% used by the Fund). The Sub-Advisor establishes target valuations that it believes constitute fair value given market conditions, and will generally sell Fund positions when those securities meet that target price range. As a result of its strategy, the Fund may have a relatively high level of portfolio turnover compared to other mutual funds, which may affect the Fund's performance due to higher transactions costs and higher taxes. Portfolio turnover will not be a limiting factor in making investment decisions.

Risk [Heading] rr_RiskHeading PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND
Risk Narrative [Text Block] rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock

The loss of your money is a principal risk of investing in the Fund.  Investments in the Fund are subject to investment risks, including the possible loss of some or the entire principal amount invested.  There can be no assurance that the Fund will be successful in meeting its investment objective. Your investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Accordingly, you may lose money by investing in the Fund. Generally, the Fund will be subject to the following principal risks:

 

Common Stock Risk.  Investments by the Fund in shares of common stock may fluctuate in value in response to many factors, including the activities of the individual issuers whose securities the Fund owns, general market and economic conditions, interest rates, and specific industry changes.  Such price fluctuations subject the Fund to potential losses.  During temporary or extended bear markets, the value of common stocks will decline, which could also result in losses for the Fund.

 

Investment Sub-Advisor Risk .   The Sub-Advisor's ability to choose suitable investments has a significant impact on the ability of the Fund to achieve its investment objectives.  The experience of the portfolio managers is discussed in "Management of the Fund – Investment Sub-Advisor."

 

Market Risk.  Market risk refers to the possibility that the value of securities held by the Fund may decline due to daily fluctuations in the securities markets.  Stock prices change daily as a result of many factors, including developments affecting the condition of both individual companies and the market in general.  The price of a stock may even be affected by factors unrelated to the value or condition of its issuer, such as changes in interest rates, national and international economic and/or political conditions, and general equity market conditions.  In a declining stock market, prices for all companies (including those in the Fund's portfolio) may decline regardless of their long-term prospects. The Fund's performance per share will change daily in response to such factors.

 

Portfolio Turnover Risk.   The Fund may have a high turnover of the securities held in its portfolio. Increased portfolio turnover causes the Fund to incur higher brokerage costs, which may adversely affect the Fund's performance and may produce increased taxable distributions.

 

Sector Concentration Risk. Because the Fund's investments may, from time to time, be more heavily invested in particular sectors, the value of its shares may be especially sensitive to factors and economic risks that specifically affect those sectors.  As a result, the Fund's share price may fluctuate more widely than the value of shares of a mutual fund that invests in a broader range of industries. 

 

Consumer Discretionary.   Companies in this sector may be adversely affected by negative changes in the domestic and international economies, interest rates, competition, consumer confidence, disposable household income, and consumer spending.  These companies are also subject to severe competition and changes in demographics and consumer tastes, which may have an adverse effect on the performance of these companies.

 

Healthcare.   Companies in this sector are subject to extensive litigation based on product liability and similar claims , dependence on patent protection and expiration of patents, competitive forces that make it difficult to raise prices, long and costly regulatory processes, and product obsolescence, all of which may adversely affect the value of those holdings.

 

Technology.   The performance of companies in this sector may be adversely affected by intense competition both domestically and internationally, limited product lines, markets, financial resources, or personnel, rapid product obsolescence and frequent new product introduction, dramatic and unpredictable changes in growth rates, and dependence on patent and intellectual property rights.

 

Small-Cap Securities Risk.   The Fund may invest in securities of small-cap companies, which involves greater volatility than investing in larger and more established companies.  Small-cap companies can be subject to more abrupt or erratic share price changes than larger, more established companies.  Securities of these types of companies have limited market liquidity, and their prices may be more volatile.  You should expect that the value of the Fund's shares will be more volatile than a fund that invests exclusively in large-capitalization companies.

[2] The Crow Point Partners, LLC (the "Advisor") has entered into an expense limitation agreement with the Fund under which it has agreed to waive or reduce its fees in an amount that limits the Fund's annual operating expenses (exclusive of : (i) any front-end or contingent deferred loads; (ii) brokerage fees and commissions, (iii) acquired fund fees and expenses; (iv) fees and expenses associated with investments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including for example option and swap fees and expenses); (v) borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short); (vi) taxes; and (vii) extraordinary expenses, such as litigation expenses (which may include indemnification of Fund officers and Trustees and contractual indemnification of Fund service providers (other than the Advisor)) ) to not more than 1.35% of the average daily net assets of the Fund through September 30, 2019 . The Expense Limitation Agreement may be terminated by the Board of Trustees of the Fund (the "Board" or the "Trustees"). The Advisor cannot recoup from the Fund any amounts paid by the Advisor under the Expense Limitation Agreement. Further, net annual operating expenses for the Fund may exceed those contemplated by the waiver due to acquired fund fees and other expenses that are not waived under the Expense Limitation Agreement.
