Nominations first, then winners
Most shows announce nominees four to eight weeks before the ceremony. Markets often open for nominations first (who gets nominated in a category), then for winners once the nominees are known. Check the app for which markets are open now.
How awards markets settle
Winner markets settle on the official winners announced by the organiser, as named in each market's rules. If a ceremony moves, the rules say what happens to the market. Read them before you trade.
