InfraCap MLP ETF | MLP Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

MLP Risk. Investments in MLPs may be negatively impacted by tax law changes, changes in interest rates, the failure of the MLP’s parent or sponsor to make payments as expected, regulatory developments or other factors affecting the MLP’s underlying assets, which are typically in the natural resources and energy sectors.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Energy Infrastructure Sector Risks [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Energy Infrastructure Sector Risks. Risks of investing in companies in the energy infrastructure sector include, but are not limited to, reduced volumes of natural gas or other energy commodities available for transporting, processing or storing; new construction risks and acquisition risk which can limit growth potential; a sustained reduced demand for crude oil, natural gas and refined petroleum products; changes in the regulatory environment; extreme weather; rising interest rates; and threats of attack by terrorists.

InfraCap MLP ETF | MLP Tax Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

MLP Tax Risk. MLPs taxed as partnerships generally do not pay U.S. federal income tax at the partnership level. Accordingly, a change in current tax law, or a change in the underlying business mix of a given MLP, could result in an MLP being required to pay U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income, which could result in a reduction in the value of your investment in the Fund and lower its income.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Interest Rates Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Interest Rate Risk. As yield-based investments, MLPs carry interest rate risk and may underperform in rising interest rate environments.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Leverage Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Leverage Risk. Leverage can magnify the Fund’s gains and losses and therefore increase its volatility. The Fund cannot guarantee that the use of leverage will produce increased income or a higher return on an investment. The use of leverage may result in the Fund having to liquidate holdings when it may not be advantageous to do so in order to satisfy its obligations.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Options Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Options Risk. When the Fund purchases options, it risks the loss of the cash paid for the options if the options expire unexercised. When the Fund sells (writes) call options, it forgoes the opportunity to benefit from an increase in the value of the underlying asset above the exercise price, but it continues to bear the risk of a decline in the value of the underlying asset. In addition, the Fund may earn premiums from writing call options. For shareholders who hold Shares in a taxable account, profits from writing call options are generally treated as short-term capital gains for U.S. federal income tax purposes, taxable as ordinary income for shareholders upon distribution. Also, where a put or call option on a particular underlying asset is purchased to hedge against price movements in a related asset, the price of the put or call option may move more or less than the price of the related asset. There can be no assurance that a liquid market will exist when the Fund seeks to close out an option position. Furthermore, if trading restrictions or suspensions are imposed on the options market, the Fund may be unable to close out an option position.

InfraCap MLP ETF | MLP Liquidity Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

MLP Liquidity Risk. Although common units of MLPs trade on a national securities exchange, certain MLP securities may trade less frequently than those of larger companies due to their smaller capitalizations. As a result, these securities may be difficult to dispose of at a fair price at the times when the Sub-Adviser believes it is desirable to do so.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Deferred Tax Liability Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Deferred Tax Liability Risk. The Fund is taxed as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. This differs from most investment companies, which elect to be treated as “regulated investment companies” under the Code in order to avoid paying entity level income taxes. As a “C” corporation, the Fund is subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income at the corporate income tax rate as well as state and local income taxes. The Fund will not benefit from the current favorable federal income tax rates on long-term capital gains and Fund income, losses and expenses will not be passed through to the Fund’s shareholders. As a “C” corporation, the Fund will accrue deferred income taxes for any future tax liability associated with (i) that portion of MLP distributions considered to be a tax-deferred return of capital as well as (ii) capital appreciation of its investments. Upon the sale of an MLP security, the Fund may be liable for previously deferred taxes. The Fund’s accrued deferred tax liability will be reflected each day in the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”). Changes in the Fund’s estimate or assumptions regarding its deferred tax liability could have a material impact on the Fund’s NAV.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Returns of Capital Distributions From the Fund Reduce the Tax Basis of Shares [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Returns of Capital Distributions From the Fund Reduce the Tax Basis of Shares. All or a portion of the Fund’s distributions are expected to be treated as a return of capital for tax purposes. Returns of capital distribution are not taxable income to you but reduce your tax basis in your Shares. Such a reduction in tax basis will result in larger taxable gains and/or lower tax losses on a subsequent sale of Shares. Shareholders who periodically receive the payment of dividends or other distributions consisting of a return of capital may be under the impression that they are receiving net profits from the Fund when, in fact, they are not. You should not assume that the source of the distributions is from the net profits of the Fund.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Futures Contracts Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Futures Contracts Risk. The successful use of futures contracts depends upon the Sub-Adviser’s skill and experience with respect to such instruments and are subject to special risk considerations, including: imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the instruments held by the Fund and the price of the futures contract; possible lack of a liquid secondary market; the possibility that a counterparty will default in the performance of its obligations; the possibility that a failure to close a position may result in delivery of an illiquid asset to the Fund or that rapid selling to avoid delivery may result in unfavorable execution prices; and possible inefficiencies that are created by the need to “roll contracts” (i.e., sell out of a contract that is nearing delivery or settlement in favor of a contract with a delivery or settlement date that is further into the future). If the Sub-Adviser seeks to apply a hedge in the Fund’s portfolio at an inappropriate time or judges market movements incorrectly, futures strategies may lower the Fund’s return.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Short Sales Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Short Sales Risk. Generally, to the extent the price of a security sold short increases between the time of the short sale and the time the Fund covers its short position, the Fund will incur a loss. The amount of a potential loss on an uncovered short sale transaction is theoretically unlimited.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Risks of Investing in Underlying ETFs and Other Registered Investment Companies [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Risks of Investing in Underlying ETFs and Other Registered Investment Companies. In addition to the risks associated with the underlying assets held by an ETF or other registered investment company, the Fund will be subject to the risks associated with such vehicles’ investments, including the possibility that the value of the securities or instruments held by such vehicle could decrease. Investments in ETFs are also subject to the following additional risks: (1) an ETF’s shares may trade above or below its NAV; (2) an active trading market for the ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained; (3) trading an ETF’s shares may be halted by the listing exchange; (4) a passively managed ETF may not track the performance of the reference asset; and (5) a passively managed ETF may hold troubled securities or other investments.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Small- and Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Small- and Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk. Small- and mid-sized companies often have narrower markets, fewer products or services to offer, and more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies. As a result, the performance of small- and mid-sized companies may be more volatile, and they may face a greater risk of business failure, which could increase the volatility and risk of loss to the Fund.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Operational and Technology Risks [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Operational and Technology Risks. Human errors, processing errors, communication errors, systems failures, cybersecurity incidents, and the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning that affect the Fund’s service providers, may result in losses for the Fund and its shareholders or may impair the Fund’s operations. While the Fund’s service providers are required to have appropriate operational, information security and cybersecurity risk management policies and procedures, their methods of risk management may differ from those of the Fund. Operational and technology risks for the issuers in which the Fund invests could also result in material adverse consequences for such issuers and may cause the Fund’s investments in such issuers to lose value.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Market Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Market Risk. The value of the securities in the Fund may go up or down (sometimes significantly) in response to the prospects of individual companies and/or general economic conditions, including local, regional or global events.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Active Management Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Active Management Risk. The Fund is actively managed and its performance reflects the investment decisions that the Sub-Adviser makes for the Fund. The Sub-Adviser’s judgments about the attractiveness and potential appreciation of a security or other asset may prove to be inaccurate and may not produce the desired results.

InfraCap MLP ETF | ETF Risks [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

ETF Risks. The Fund is an ETF and, as a result of this structure, is exposed to the following risks, among others:

InfraCap MLP ETF | Authorized Participant Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Authorized Participant Risk. The Fund has a limited number of financial institutions that may act as Authorized Participants, none of which are obligated to engage in creation or redemption transactions. To the extent these Authorized Participants exit the business or are unable or unwilling to process creation and/or redemption orders (either because of valuation difficulties or for other reasons), and no other Authorized Participant is able or willing to step forward to process creation and/or redemption orders, in either of these cases, Shares of the Fund may trade at a discount to NAV and possibly face delisting.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Costs of Buying or Selling Shares [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Costs of Buying or Selling Shares. Due to the costs of buying or selling Shares, including brokerage commissions and bid/ask spreads, frequent trading of Shares may significantly reduce investment results and an investment in Shares may not be advisable for investors who anticipate regularly making small investments.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Fluctuation of NAV; Unit Premiums and Discounts [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Fluctuation of NAV; Unit Premiums and Discounts. The NAV of the Shares will generally fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund’s securities holdings, and the Fund cannot be predicted whether Shares will trade below, at or above their NAV. If an investor purchases Shares at a time when the market price is at a premium to the NAV of the Shares or sells at a time when the market price is at a discount to the NAV of the Shares, then the investor may sustain losses that are in addition to any losses caused by a decrease in NAV.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Cash Transactions Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Cash Transactions Risk. The Fund expects to generally effect its creations and redemptions entirely for cash, rather than for in-kind securities. Accordingly, investments in Shares may be less tax-efficient than an investment in an ETF that distributes portfolio securities entirely in-kind. Transaction costs, including brokerage costs, will decrease the Fund’s net asset value to the extent not offset by the transaction fee payable by an Authorized Participant.

InfraCap MLP ETF | No Assurance of Active Trading Market Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•No Assurance of Active Trading Market Risk. Although the Shares in the Fund are approved for listing on the Exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop and be maintained for the Shares of the Fund. In times of market stress, market makers or Authorized Participants may step away from their respective roles in making a market in the Fund’s Shares, which could lead to wider bid/ ask spreads and variances between the market price of the Fund’s Shares and their underlying value.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Fund Shares Liquidity Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Fund Shares Liquidity Risk. In stressed market conditions, the market for an ETF’s shares may become less liquid in response to deteriorating liquidity in the markets for the ETF’s underlying portfolio holdings, which can result in wider bid/ask spreads and differences between the ETF’s NAV and market price.

InfraCap MLP ETF | National Closed Market Trading Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•National Closed Market Trading Risk.  To the extent that the underlying securities held by the Fund trade on foreign exchanges or in foreign markets that are closed when the securities exchange on which a Fund’s shares trade is open, there are likely to be deviations between the current price of such an underlying security

and the last quoted price for the underlying security (i.e., a Fund’s quote from the closed foreign market). The impact of a closed foreign market on a Fund is likely to be greater where a large portion of a Fund’s underlying securities and/or other assets trade on that closed foreign market or when the foreign market is closed for unscheduled reasons. These deviations may result in premiums or discounts to a Fund’s NAV that may be greater than those experienced by other ETFs that don’t hold foreign securities.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Risks Related to Portfolio Turnover [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Risks Related to Portfolio Turnover. The Fund’s principal investment strategies may result in a consistently high portfolio turnover rate. See the “Portfolio Turnover” section above for more information about the impact that portfolio turnover can have on your investment.

InfraCap MLP ETF | Risk Nondiversified Status [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Non-Diversified Fund Risk. The Fund is considered non-diversified and may be more susceptible to factors negatively impacting its holdings to the extent the Fund invests more of its assets in the securities of fewer issuers than would a diversified fund.

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | Interest Rates Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Interest Rate Risk. The value of preferred securities will generally vary inversely with the direction of prevailing interest rates such that, generally, when interest rates rise, the value of REIT securities (including preferred securities) can be expected to decline.

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | Operational and Technology Risks [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Operational and Technology Risks. Human errors, processing errors, communication errors, systems failures, cybersecurity incidents, and the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning that affect the Fund’s service providers, may result in losses for the Fund and its shareholders or may impair the Fund’s operations. While the Fund’s service providers are required to have appropriate operational, information security and cybersecurity risk management policies and procedures, their methods of risk management may differ from those of the Fund. Operational and technology risks for the issuers in which the Fund invests could also result in material adverse consequences for such issuers and may cause the Fund’s investments in such issuers to lose value.

Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Deferral and Omission. If the Fund owns preferred securities that include provisions that permit the issuer to defer or omit distributions for a stated period without any adverse consequences to the issuer, the Fund may be required to report income for tax purposes although it has not yet received such income.

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | Subordination [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Subordination. Preferred securities are generally subordinated to bonds and other debt instruments in a company’s capital structure in terms of having priority to corporate income and liquidation payments, and therefore will be subject to greater credit risk than more senior debt instruments.

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | Interest Rates [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Interest Rate. The prices of preferred securities typically respond to interest rate changes, decreasing in value if interest rates rise and increasing in value if interest rates fall. Accordingly, increases in interest rates are likely to have a negative impact on the preferred stocks held by the Fund.

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | Liquidity [Member]

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | REIT Industries Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

REIT Industries Risk. The Fund is subject to the risk that the value of stocks of REITs will decline because of adverse developments affecting the Mortgage REITs and/or Equity REITs industries, including deterioration in the real estate rental market, declines in real estate property demand, changes in interest rates, declines in the availability of real estate financing, increases in borrower defaults, overbuilding, or other developments that reduce credit and cash positions of REITs and REIT operators. REITs may also be adversely affected by poor management, failure to quality as a REIT under the Code, environmental problems, property tax increases or changes in federal, state or local regulations.

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | Issuer Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Issuer Risk. The performance of the Fund depends on the performance of the issuers of the individual securities in which the Fund invests. Poor performance by any issuer may cause the value of its securities, and the value of the Shares, to decline.

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | Small Capitalization Companies Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Small Capitalization Companies Risk. Small-sized companies often have narrower markets, fewer products or services to offer, and more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies. As a result, the performance of small-sized companies may be more volatile, and they may face a greater risk of business failure, which could increase the volatility and risk of loss to the Fund.

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | Concentration Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Concentration Risk. To the extent the Fund focuses its investments in one or more industries or sectors, the Fund is likely to present more risks than a fund that is broadly invested in several industries or sectors. Compared to the broad market, an individual industry or sector may be more strongly affected by changes in the economic climate, broad market shifts, moves in a particular dominant stock or regulatory changes.

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | Passive Strategy/Index Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Passive Strategy/Index Risk. The Fund may hold constituent securities of the Underlying Index regardless of the current or projected performance of a specific security or the relevant sector as a whole, which could cause the Fund’s returns to be lower than if the Fund employed an active strategy. Unless the Underlying Index allocates significant portions of its assets to cash and cash equivalents during times of adverse market or economic conditions, the Fund may be subject to a higher level of market risk during such times than other funds.

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | Index Tracking Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Index Tracking Risk. The Fund’s return may not match or achieve a high degree of correlation with the returns of the Underlying Index due to operating expenses, transaction costs, cash flows, regulatory requirements and operational inefficiencies.

InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF | Calculation Methodology [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Calculation Methodology. The Underlying Index relies on various sources of information to assess the criteria of issuers included in the Underlying Index, including information that may be based on assumptions and estimates.

The Fund, the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and Indxx cannot offer assurances that the Underlying Index’s calculation methodology or sources of information will provide an accurate assessment of included issuers.

•National Closed Market Trading Risk.  To the extent that the underlying securities held by the Fund trade on foreign exchanges or in foreign markets that are closed when the securities exchange on which a Fund’s shares trade is open, there are likely to be deviations between the current price of such an underlying security and the last quoted price for the underlying security (i.e., a Fund’s quote from the closed foreign market). The impact of a closed foreign market on a Fund is likely to be greater where a large portion of a Fund’s underlying securities and/or other assets trade on that closed foreign market or when the foreign market is closed for unscheduled reasons. These deviations may result in premiums or discounts to a Fund’s NAV that may be greater than those experienced by other ETFs that don’t hold foreign securities.

Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•National Closed Market Trading Risk.  To the extent that the underlying securities held by the Fund trade on foreign exchanges or in foreign markets that are closed when the securities exchange on which a Fund’s shares trade is open, there are likely to be deviations between the current price of such an underlying security and the last quoted price for the underlying security (i.e., a Fund’s quote from the closed foreign market). The impact of a closed foreign market on a Fund is likely to be greater where a large portion of a Fund’s underlying securities and/or other assets trade on that closed foreign market or when the foreign market is closed for unscheduled reasons. These deviations may result in premiums or discounts to a Fund’s NAV that may be greater than those experienced by other ETFs that don’t hold foreign securities.

Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Passive Strategy/Index Risk. The Fund may hold constituent securities of the Underlying Index regardless of the current or projected performance of a specific security or the biotechnology industry as a whole, which could cause the Fund’s returns to be lower than if the Fund employed an active strategy. Unless the Underlying Index allocates significant portions of its assets to cash and cash equivalents during times of adverse market or economic conditions, the Fund may be subject to a higher level of market risk during such times than other funds.

Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Biotechnology Industry Risk. A fund concentrated in a single industry or sector, such as the biotechnology industry, is likely to present more risks than a fund that is broadly diversified over several industries or sectors. Companies within the biotechnology industry are subject to significant governmental regulation, the need for governmental approvals, including, without limitation, the successful implementation of Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trials and, ultimately, FDA approval, typically rely heavily on their ability to obtain and enforce intellectual property rights and patents, tend to be more volatile than those of companies with larger capitalizations or markets generally, and can be significantly affected by technological change, obsolescence and competition, as well as product liability lawsuits and resulting high insurance costs.

Small and Medium Capitalization Companies Risk. Small and medium-sized companies often have narrower markets, fewer products or services to offer, and more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies.

Equal Weighting Risk. Equal weighting is a method of weighting index stocks whereby the same exposure is provided to both the smallest and largest companies included in the index.

Loan Risk. In addition to the risks typically associated with high-yield/high-risk fixed income securities, the loans in which the Fund invests may be unsecured or not fully collateralized, may be subject to restrictions on resale, may be less liquid and may trade infrequently on the secondary market. Loans settle on a delayed basis; thus, sale proceeds may not be available to meet redemptions for a substantial period of time after the sale of the loan.

Risk [Text Block]

Municipal Securities Risk. Municipal securities may be significantly affected by political changes as well as uncertainties in the municipal market related to taxation, legislative changes, or the rights of municipal security holders. Failure of a municipal security issuer to comply with applicable tax requirements may make income paid thereon taxable, resulting in a decline in the security’s value. Because many municipal securities are issued to finance similar projects, especially those relating to education, healthcare, transportation, and utilities, conditions in those sectors can affect the overall municipal market.

Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Authorized Participant Risk. The Fund has a limited number of financial institutions that may act as Authorized Participants, none of which are obligated to engage in creation or redemption transactions. To the extent these Authorized Participants exit the business or are unable or unwilling to process creation and/or redemption orders (either because of valuation difficulties or for other reasons), and no other Authorized Participant is able or willing to step forward to process creation and/or redemption orders, in either of these cases, Shares of the Fund may trade at a discount to net asset value (“NAV”) and possibly face delisting.

•Costs of Buying or Selling Shares. Due to the costs of buying or selling Shares, including brokerage commissions and bid/ask spreads, frequent trading of Shares may significantly reduce investment results and an investment in Shares may not be advisable for investors who anticipate regularly making small investments.

Risk [Text Block]

•Fluctuation of NAV; Unit Premiums and Discounts. The NAV of the Shares will generally fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund’s securities holdings, and the Fund cannot be predicted whether Shares will trade below, at or above their NAV. If an investor purchases Shares at a time when the market price is at a premium to the NAV of the Shares or sells at a time when the market price is at a discount to the NAV of the Shares, then the investor may sustain losses that are in addition to any losses caused by a decrease in NAV.

•No Assurance of Active Trading Market Risk. Although the Shares in the Fund are approved for listing on the Exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop and be maintained for the Shares of the Fund. In times of market stress, market makers or Authorized Participants may step away from their respective roles in making a market in the Fund’s Shares, which could lead to wider bid/ask spreads and variances between the market price of the Fund’s Shares and their underlying value.

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | National Closed Market Trading Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•National Closed Market Trading Risk.  To the extent that the underlying securities held by the Fund trade on foreign exchanges or in foreign markets that are closed when the securities exchange on which a Fund’s shares trade is open, there are likely to be deviations between the current price of such an underlying security and the last quoted price for the underlying security (i.e., a Fund’s quote from the closed foreign market). The impact of a closed foreign market on a Fund is likely to be greater where a large portion of a Fund’s underlying securities and/or other assets trade on that closed foreign market or when the foreign market is closed for unscheduled reasons. These deviations may result in premiums or discounts to a Fund’s NAV that may be greater than those experienced by other ETFs that don’t hold foreign securities.

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | Issuer Risk [Member]

Issuer Risk. The performance of the Fund depends on the performance of the issuers of the individual securities in which Fund invests. Poor performance by any issuer may cause the value of its securities, and the value of the Shares, to decline.

Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Concentration Risk. To the extent the Fund concentrates its investments in one or more industries or sectors the Fund is likely to present more risks than a fund that is broadly diversified over several industries or sectors. Compared to the broad market, an individual industry or sector may be more strongly affected by changes in the economic climate, broad market shifts, moves in a particular dominant stock or regulatory changes.

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | Passive Strategy/Index Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Passive Strategy/Index Risk. The Fund may hold constituent securities of the Underlying Index regardless of the current or projected performance of a specific security or the relevant sector as a whole, which could cause the Fund’s returns to be lower than if the Fund employed an active strategy. Unless the Underlying Index allocates significant portions of its assets to cash and cash equivalents during times of adverse market or economic conditions, the Fund may be subject to a higher level of market risk during such times than other funds.

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | Index Tracking Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]

Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Debt Securities Risks. Debt securities are subject to credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, maturity risk, yield curve risk and prepayment risk.

Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Interest Rate Risk. The values of fixed income securities may rise or fall in response to changes in interest rates, and this risk may be enhanced for securities with longer maturities. Adjustable rate instruments also react to interest rate changes in a similar manner, although generally to a lesser degree (depending, however, on the characteristics of the reset terms, including the index chosen, frequency of reset and reset caps or floors, among other factors).

Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Yield Curve Risk. Yield curve risk refers to the risk that changes in interest rates may affect yields of fixed-income securities differently for securities with different maturities. If the yield curve flattens, then the spread between long- and short-term yields narrows and if the yield curve steepens, then the spread between long- and short-term yields increases.

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | Prepayment Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Prepayment Risk. Issuers may prepay or call their fixed rate obligations when interest rates fall, forcing the Fund to reinvest in obligations with lower interest rates and the Fund may not benefit fully from the increase in value that other fixed income investments experience when interest rates decline.

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | Income Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

•Income Risk. The income that a shareholder receives from the Fund is based primarily on the interest it earns from the Fund’s investments, which can vary widely over the short and long-term. If prevailing market interest rates drop, distribution rates of the Fund’s holdings could drop as well. The Fund’s income also would likely be affected adversely when prevailing short-term interest rates increase.

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | Junk Bonds or High Yield Securities Risk [Member]

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | Risks of Investing in Private Credit Funds [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Risks of Investing in Private Credit Funds. There are certain risks inherent in investing in closed-end funds and BDCs that provide exposure to private credit, in particular the risks of their underlying investments, which include liquidity risk, industry risk, foreign security risk, currency risk, valuation risk and credit risk. Private credit securities also carry risks associated with unclear ownership and market access constraints.

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | Investments in Closed-End Funds Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Investments in Closed-End Funds Risk. Closed-end funds in which the Fund invests may expose the Fund to negative performance and additional expenses associated with investment in such funds. Closed-end funds may trade at a discount from their net asset value, which may affect whether the Fund will realize gains or losses. They may also employ leverage, which may increase volatility.

In addition to the general risks above for closed-end funds, a BDC may make investments with a larger amount of risk of volatility and loss of principal than other investment options and may also be highly speculative and aggressive.

Equity Securities Risk. The value of the equity securities held by the Fund may be negatively affected by the financial market, industries in which the Fund invests, or issuer-specific events. Focus on a particular style or in small or medium-sized companies may enhance that risk.

Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Senior Loan Risk. The risks of investing in senior loans are similar to the risks of investing in junk bonds, although the senior loans in which the Fund invests are typically senior and secured, whereas junk bonds often are subordinated and unsecured. In addition, investments in senior loans may be subject to restrictions on resale, may be less liquid and may trade infrequently on the secondary market. Senior loans settle on a delayed basis; thus, sale proceeds may not be available to meet redemptions for a substantial period of time after the sale of the loan.

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | Collateralized Loan Obligations [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Collateralized Loan Obligations. CLOs are normally privately offered and sold (that is, they are not registered under the securities laws) and may be characterized as illiquid securities. In addition to the general risks associated with investing in debt securities, CLOs carry additional risks, including, without limitation, the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments, the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default, the CLO may be subordinate to other classes, values may be volatile, and disputes with the issuer may produce unexpected investment results.

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | Small and Micro Capitalization Companies Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Small and Micro Capitalization Companies Risk. Small and micro-sized companies often have narrower markets, fewer products or services to offer, and more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies. As a result, the performance of small and micro-sized companies may be more volatile, and they may face a greater risk of business failure, which could increase the volatility and risk of loss to the Fund. These risks are substantially greater for micro-sized companies.

Virtus Private Credit Strategy ETF | Securities Lending Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Securities Lending Risk. The Fund may engage in securities lending. Securities lending involves a risk of loss because the borrower may fail to return the securities in a timely manner or at all, which may force an underlying fund to sell the collateral and purchase a replacement security in the market at a disadvantageous time. The Fund could also lose money in the event of a decline in the value of collateral provided for loaned securities or a decline in the value of any investments made with cash collateral.

MLP Tax Risk. MLPs taxed as partnerships generally do not pay U.S. federal income tax at the partnership level. Accordingly, a change in current tax law, or a change in the underlying business mix of a given MLP, could result in an MLP being required to pay U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income, which could result in a reduction in the value of your investment in the Fund and lower its income.
