Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies	Nature of Operations The Everest Fund, L.P. (the “Partnership”) was organized in June 1988 pursuant to the Iowa Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the purpose of engaging in the speculative trading of futures and forward contracts for commodities, financial instruments, stock indexes and currencies, any rights pertaining thereto and any options thereon or on physical commodities. As part of its objective, the Partnership may also engage in hedge, arbitrage and cash trading of commodities and futures. The Partnership may engage in the foregoing business directly, through investing in other funds and Partnerships and through investing in subsidiary limited partnerships or other limited liability entities. The Partnership clears all of its trades through one clearing broker, RJ O’Brien (the “Clearing Broker”). The sole General Partner of the Partnership is Everest Asset Management, Inc. (the “General Partner”). All management and investment decisions are vested in the General Partner. The General Partner is registered with the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) as a Commodity Pool Operator (“CPO”) and a Commodity Trading Advisor (“CTA”) and is a member of the United States National Futures Association (NFA). The General Partner acts as the Partnership’s sole CPO, and an unrelated party EMC Capital Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”), acts as the Partnership’s sole CTA, to whom the General Partner has delegated complete trading authority. On November 1, 2018 a suspension of trading event was triggered for the Partnership. The General Partner instructed the CTA firm to liquidate all positions in an orderly way. Most US trading positions were closed in an orderly manner on that day, and the Asian and European positions were closed on November 2, 2018. Positions on the London Metal Exchange were settled on December 19, 2018. Accounts at the Clearing Broker were closed on December 28, 2018. As of December 31, 2018, all Class A limited partners units had been redeemed. Final redemptions were $2,453,822, of which $106,328 remained payable. As of April 2019, all redemptions had been paid. A summary of the Partnership’s significant accounting polices follows. Basis of Accounting The Partnership follows accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"), as established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB"), to ensure consistent reporting of financial condition and results of operations. In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash Cash in broker trading accounts is on deposit at the Clearing Broker. The Partnership at times maintains deposits with financial institutions in amounts that are in excess of federally insured limits; however, the Partnership does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk. Margin requirements are satisfied by the deposit of cash with such broker. Restricted Cash Amounts due from broker may be restricted to the extent they serve as deposits for investments sold, not yet purchased and to satisfy margin requirements. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the amount of restricted cash held by the Partnership for margin requirements was $0 and $602,280 respectively. Valuation of Investments Investments consist of open futures contracts. Open futures contracts are reflected in the accompanying statements of financial condition at fair value. The fair value of open futures positions is based upon daily exchange settlement prices. Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts When the requirements are met, the Partnership offsets certain fair value amounts recognized for cash collateral receivables or payables against fair value amounts recognized for net derivative positions executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting arrangement. Income Recognition on Investments Income on futures contracts is recorded on a trade date basis. Gains (losses) are realized when contracts are liquidated. Unrealized gains (losses) on open futures contracts are calculated based on the size of a given contract and the difference between the open futures contract closing price and the price at which the contract was initially purchased or sold. Any change in net unrealized gain or loss from the preceding period is reported in the statements of operations. Fair value of exchange-traded contracts is based upon exchange settlement prices. Fair value of non-exchange-traded contracts, if any, is based on third party quoted dealer values on the Inter-bank market. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Brokerage Commissions Brokerage commissions and exchange fees are reflected separately in the statements of operations. Foreign Currency The Partnership has certain investments denominated in foreign currencies. The purchase and sale of investments and income and expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Partnership does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of positions held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on such investments. Redemptions Payable Redemptions approved by the General Partner prior to month end with a fixed effective date and fixed amount are recorded as redemptions payable as of month end. Income Taxes The Partnership is not subject to federal income taxes, because its income and losses are includable in the tax returns of its partners. The Partnership may be required to file returns and pay tax in various state and local jurisdictions as a result of its operations or the residency of its partners. The Partnership assesses the potential outcome of uncertain tax positions. As of December 31, 2018, management believes the Partnership has no material uncertain tax positions requiring recognition or measurement. The federal and state income tax returns for tax years according to federal and state statutes remain open to examination by taxing authorities through their statutory periods. Subsequent Events The Partnership has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure through April 1, 2019, the date the financial statements were issued. See a description of the Partnership closure and distribution of remaining assets in Note 1.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	The Partnership records its investments at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Partnership utilizes valuation techniques to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs are broadly defined as assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are categorized within the fair value hierarchy based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Partnership’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the investment. The Partnership assesses the levels of the investments at each measurement date, and transfers between levels are recognized on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer in accordance with the Partnership’s accounting policy regarding the recognition of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, there were no such transfers. Exchange-traded futures contracts are typically categorized within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy depending on whether or not they are deemed to be actively traded. Futures contracts that are not actively traded are valued based on quoted prices in markets or by reference to broker or dealer quotations and are generally classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. All financial instruments listed in the condensed schedules of investments as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 are considered Level 1, measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on quoted prices for identical assets in active markets. Substantially all of the Partnership’s assets and liabilities are considered financial instruments, and are either already reflected at fair value or are short-term or replaceable on demand. Therefore, their carrying amounts approximate their fair values.

Offsetting Assets And Liabilities
Offsetting Assets and Liabilities	As of December 31, 2017, the Partnership held derivative instruments that were eligible for offset in the statements of financial condition and are subject to master netting arrangements. Master netting arrangements allow the counterparty to net applicable collateral held on behalf of the Partnership against applicable liabilities or payment obligations of the Partnership to the counterparty. These arrangements also allow the counterparty to net any of its applicable liabilities or payment obligations it has to the Partnership against any collateral sent to the Partnership. The following tables provide disclosure regarding the potential effect of offsetting of recognized assets presented in the statements of financial condition.

Limited Partnership Agreement	Pursuant to the terms of the seventh amended and restated agreement of limited partnership (the “Agreement”), dated and effective as of May 1, 2004, net income and losses are allocated to the partners in accordance with each partner’s ownership percentage. Generally, a limited partner may withdraw all or a portion of its capital only as of the close of business on the last day of a fiscal month, provided they have given at least 15 days’ prior written notice, although the General Partner may in its sole discretion accept at other times.

Fees and Related-Party Transactions	The Partnership pays its Advisor a monthly management fee of 0.167% of each limited partner’s capital balance as of the end of each month (2.0% per annum) and a quarterly incentive fee equal to 20% of trading profits, as defined. No incentive fee was earned during 2018 and 2017 because no limited partner capital account balances have reached a new high water mark. The General Partner charges the Partnership a monthly management fee equal to 0.50% (6.0% annually) of the Partnership’s Class A beginning-of-month NAV.

Indemnifications	In the normal course of business, the Partnership enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide indemnifications under certain circumstances. The Partnership’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Partnership that have not yet occurred. The Partnership expects the risk of future obligation under these indemnifications to be remote.

Financial Instruments With Off-balance-sheet Risk
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk	In connection with its trading activities, the Partnership enters into transactions with a variety of derivative financial instruments, including exchange-traded futures contracts. These derivative financial instruments may have market and/or credit risk in excess of the amounts recorded in the statements of financial condition. Market Risk Exposure to market risk is influenced by a number of factors, including the relationships between financial instruments, and the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the financial instruments are traded. In many cases, the use of financial instruments serves to modify or offset market risk associated with other transactions and, accordingly, serves to decrease the Partnership's overall exposure to market risk. The Partnership attempts to control its exposure to market risk through various analytical monitoring techniques. Credit Risk Concentrations of Credit Risk The General Partner has established procedures to actively monitor market risk and minimize credit risk, although there can be no assurance that it will, in fact, succeed in doing so. The partners bear the risk of loss only to the extent of the market value of their respective investments. Futures Risk
