Question: Assalamu Alaikum!  My friends and I have begun investing in stock options, specifically using the long straddle strategy (NOT short) and I wanted to make sure it was all Halal.  Here is a Wikipedia link describing it, the first part is about the long straddle: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straddle  Using this strategy we purchase both put and call options on a stock before a big event (earnings, major news) so we benefit whether the stock moves up or down.  Some of use are earning very high returns in what has so far been very low risk trades.  There is no interest involved as we are not shorting a stock or borrowing anything from our brokers.  Please let us the status of these investments in the Shariah.
