Best way would be get a huge tank, and get about 6 babies and let them naturally pair up. Keep a pair you like and sell the rest.
yup

some people say look at the anal fins

my dads breeding pair , the male has the long anal fins
 
no real way to sex an oscar. there is a school of thought that as adult, meaning 18 months or older that a male will have more of a peanut shaped belly, while a female have a more rounded belly, I had a breading pair, not to say successfully, they kept eating the eggs. so was never sure if the male was a male as never witnessed them being fertilized, I know no one that successfully breads Oscars.
the pair getting ready to lay.

after laying.
