When looking at Award Options, adding up all of the prices of a particular categories options totals this:
Pic- 19.25
Dir- 21.84
Actor- 26.47
Actress- 26.66
Sup Act- 18.84
Sup Actress- 21.52
Adapted- 24.32
Original- 24.39

Buying all Supporting and all Pic remain guaranteed profiteers.0 Feb 06, 07:14
Yeah, but nowhere near as much as buying the favorite and shorting the rest. Feb 06, 10:28
Of course not {nm} Feb 07, 07:10
It means traders are more confident on the ones that won’t win, less confident on who will win. Feb 07, 12:56
