Risk/Return, Heading	rr_RiskReturnHeading	NOVA FUND
Risk/Return, Supplement Text Block	ck0000899148_SupplementTextBlock	IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUND - The Nova Fund (the "Fund") is very different from most other mutual funds in that it seeks daily leveraged investment results. As a result, the Fund may be riskier than alternatives that do not use leverage because the performance of an investment is magnified. The effect of leverage on the Fund will generally cause the Fund's performance to not match or correlate to the performance of the Fund's benchmark (as defined below) over a period of time greater than a single trading day. This means that the return of the Fund for a period of longer than a single trading day will be the result of each day's compounded returns over the period, which will very likely differ from 1.5x of the return of the Fund's underlying index (as defined below) for that period. As a consequence, especially in periods of market volatility, the path or trend of the benchmark during the longer period may be at least as important to the Fund's cumulative return for the longer period as the cumulative return of the benchmark for the relevant longer period. Further, the return for investors who invest for a period longer than a single trading day will not be the product of the return of the Fund's stated investment goal (e.g., 1.5x) and the cumulative performance of the underlying index (as defined below). The Fund is not suitable for all investors. The Fund should be utilized only by investors who (a) understand the risks associated with the use of leverage, (b) understand the consequences of seeking daily leveraged investment results, and (c) intend to actively monitor and manage their investments. Investors who do not meet these criteria should not buy shares of the Fund. An investment in the Fund is not a complete investment program.
Investment Objective, Heading	rr_ObjectiveHeading	INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE -
investment Objective, Primary	rr_ObjectivePrimaryTextBlock	The Fund seeks to provide investment results that match, before fees and expenses, the performance of a specific benchmark on a daily basis. The Fund's current benchmark is 150% of the performance of the S&P 500® Index (the "underlying index"). The Fund does not seek to achieve its investment objective over a period of time greater than one day.
Expense, Heading	rr_ExpenseHeading	FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE FUND -
Expense, Narrative	rr_ExpenseNarrativeTextBlock	This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold A-Class Shares or C-Class Shares of the Fund. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $100,000 in certain Rydex|SGI Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available from your financial professional and under the "Sales Charges" section on page 306 of the Prospectus and in the "A-Class Shares - Initial Sales Charges, Reductions, and Waivers" section beginning on page 108 of the Fund's Statement of Additional Information (the "SAI").
Shareholder Fees, Caption	rr_ShareholderFeesCaption	SHAREHOLDER FEES (fees paid directly from your investment)
Operating Expenses, Caption	rr_OperatingExpensesCaption	ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)
Portfolio Turnover, Heading	rr_PortfolioTurnoverHeading	PORTFOLIO TURNOVER -
Portfolio Turnover	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 Total 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 53% of the average value of its portfolio. However, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate is calculated without regard to cash instruments or derivatives. If such instruments were included, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate might be significantly higher.

Expense Example, Heading	rr_ExpenseExampleHeading	EXAMPLE -
Expense Example, Narrative	rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock	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 all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:
Expense Example, No Redemption, By Year, Caption	rr_ExpenseExampleNoRedemptionByYearCaption	You would pay the following expenses if you did not redeem your share
Investment Strategy, Heading	rr_StrategyHeading	PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES -
Investment Strategy, Narrative	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund employs as its investment strategy a program of investing in the common stock of companies that are generally within the capitalization range of the underlying index and leveraged derivative instruments, which primarily consist of equity index swap agreements, futures contracts, and options on securities, futures contracts, and stock indices. Equity index swaps and futures and options contracts, if used properly, may enable the Fund to meet its objective by increasing the Fund's exposure to the securities included in the underlying index or to securities whose performance is highly correlated to that of the Fund's benchmark. The S&P 500® Index is a capitalization-weighted index composed of 500 common stocks, which are chosen by the Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P") on a statistical basis, and which generally represent large-capitalization companies with capitalizations ranging from $1.41 billion to $400.88 billion as of June 30, 2011. Certain of the Fund's derivative investments may be traded in the over-the-counter ("OTC") market. On a day-to-day basis, the Fund may hold U.S. government securities or cash equivalents to collateralize its derivative positions. In an effort to ensure that the Fund is fully invested on a day-to-day basis, the Fund may conduct any necessary trading activity at or just prior to the close of the U.S. financial markets. To the extent the Fund's underlying index is concentrated in a particular industry the Fund will necessarily be concentrated in that industry. The Fund is non-diversified and, therefore, may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer in comparison to a diversified fund.
Risk, Heading	rr_RiskHeading	PRINCIPAL RISKS -
Risk, Narrative	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	As with all mutual funds, a shareholder is subject to the risk that his or her investment could lose money. In addition to this risk, the Fund is subject to a number of additional risks that may affect the value of itsshares, including: Active Trading Risk - Active trading, also called "high portfolio turnover," may result in higher brokerage costs or mark-up charges, which may negatively affect Fund performance and result in short-term capital gains, which have a negative tax effect. Large movements of assets into and out of the Fund due to active trading also may adversely affect the Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective. Correlation and Compounding Risk - A number of factors may affect the Fund's ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with its benchmark, and there can be no guarantee that the Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. Failure to achieve a high degree of correlation may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective. The risk of the Fund not achieving its daily investment objective will be more acute when the underlying index has an extreme one-day movement approaching 50%. In addition, as a result of compounding, the Fund's performance for periods greater than one day is likely to be either greater than or less than the performance of the underlying index times the stated multiple in the Fund's investment objective, before accounting for fees and fund expenses. Compounding affects all investments, but has a more significant impact on a leveraged index fund. In general, particularly during periods of higher index volatility, compounding will cause longer-term results to be more or less than the return of the Fund's benchmark. This effect becomes more pronounced as volatility increases. Fund performance for periods greater than one day can be estimated given any set of assumptions for the following factors: (a) underlying index performance; (b) underlying index volatility; (c) financing rates associated with leverage; (d) other Fund expenses; (e) dividends paid by companies in the underlying index; and (f) period of time. The chart below illustrates the impact of two principal factors - volatility and index performance - on Fund performance. The chart shows estimated Fund returns for a number of combinations of performance and volatility over a one-year period. Performance shown in the chart assumes: (a) no dividends paid by the companies included in the underlying index; (b) no Fund expenses; and (c) a cost of leverage of zero percent. If Fund expenses were included, the Fund's performance would be lower than shown. Areas shaded lighter represent those scenarios where the Fund can be expected to return more than 150% of the performance of the underlying index; conversely, areas shaded darker represent those scenarios where the Fund can be expected to return less than 150% of the performance of the underlying index. Index Performance Annualized Volatility 1x 1.5x 10% 25% 50% 75% 100% -60% -90% -75% -75% -77% -79% -83% -50% -75% -65% -65% -68% -72% -76% -40% -60% -54% -55% -58% -62% -68% -30% -45% -42% -43% -47% -52% -60% -20% -30% -29% -31% -34% -42% -51% -10% -15% -15% -17% -23% -32% -41% 0% 0% 0% -2% -9% -19% -32% 10% 15% 14% 13% 5% -6% -21% 20% 30% 31% 29% 19% 9% -9% 30% 45% 47% 45% 35% 20% 2% 40% 60% 65% 62% 50% 35% 13% 50% 75% 83% 79% 68% 49% 25% 60% 90% 102% 98% 85% 63% 38% The underlying index's annualized historical volatility rate for the five year period ended June 30, 2011 is 17.73%. The underlying index's highest one-year volatility rate during the five year period is 29.12%. The underlying index's annualized performance for the five year period ended June 30, 2011 is 2.94%. Historical underlying index volatility and performance are not indications of what the underlying index volatility and performance will be in the future. Counterparty Credit Risk - The Fund may make investments in financial instruments involving counterparties that attempt to gain exposure to a particular group of securities, index or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. The Fund's use of such financial instruments, including swap agreements, involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, if a swap agreement counterparty defaults on its payment obligations to the Fund, this default will cause the value of your investment in the Fund to decrease. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. Derivatives Risk - The Fund's investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to those associated with investing directly in securities or other investments, including illiquidity of the derivatives, imperfect correlations with underlying investments or the Fund's other portfolio holdings, lack of availability and counterparty risk. Early Closing Risk - The Fund is subject to the risk that unanticipated early closings of securities exchanges and other financial markets may result in the Fund's inability to buy or sell securities or other financial instruments on that day and may cause the Fund to incur substantial trading losses. Large-Capitalization Securities Risk - The Fund is subject to the risk that large-capitalization stocks may underperform other segments of the equity market or the equity market as a whole. Leveraging Risk - The Fund achieves leveraged exposure to the underlying index through the use of derivative instruments. The more the Fund invests in leveraged instruments, the more this leverage will magnify any losses on those investments. The Fund's investment in these instruments generally requires a small investment relative to the amount of investment exposure assumed. As a result, such investments may give rise to losses that exceed the amount invested in those instruments. Since the Fund's investment strategy involves consistently applied leverage, the value of the Fund's shares will tend to increase or decrease more than the value of any increase or decrease in the underlying index. Leverage also will have the effect of magnifying tracking error. Liquidity Risk - In certain circumstances, it may be difficult for the Fund to purchase and sell particular investments within a reasonable time at a fair price. In addition, the ability of the Fund to assign an accurate daily value to certain investments may be difficult, and the Advisor may be required to fair value the investments. Market Risk - The Fund's investments in securities and derivatives, in general, are subject to market risks that may cause their prices, and therefore the Fund's value, to fluctuate over time. An investment in the Fund may lose money. Non-Diversification Risk - The Fund is considered non-diversified and can invest a greater portion of its assets in securities of individual issuers than a diversified fund. As a result, changes in the market value of a single security could cause greater fluctuations in the value of Fund shares than would occur in a diversified fund. OTC Trading Risk - Certain of the derivatives in which the Fund may invest may be traded (and privately negotiated) in the OTC market. While the OTC derivatives market is the primary trading venue for many derivatives, it is largely unregulated. As a result and similar to other privately negotiated contracts, the Fund is subject to counterparty credit risk with respect to such derivative contracts. Passive Investment Risk - The Fund is not actively managed and the Advisor does not attempt to take defensive positions in declining markets. Therefore, the Fund may be subject to greater losses in a declining market than a fund that is actively managed. Tracking Error Risk - The Advisor may not be able to cause the Fund's performance to match that of the Fund's benchmark, either on a daily or aggregate basis. Factors such as Fund expenses, imperfect correlation between the Fund's investments and those of the underlying index, rounding of share prices, changes to the composition of the underlying index, regulatory policies, high portfolio turnover rate, and the use of leverage all contribute to tracking error. Tracking error may cause the Fund's performance to be less than you expect. Trading Halt Risk - If a trading halt occurs, the Fund may temporarily be unable to purchase or sell securities, options or futures contracts. Such a trading halt near the time the Fund prices its shares may limit the Fund's ability to use leverage and may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective.
