  You are essentially betting on if a stock goes down, if it does you make money, if it doesn't u lose money

  you borrow a stock at a certain price.... then hope the stock price goes down... then buy back at a cheaper price in the market to return the stock at a cheaper price, hence keeping the difference of the amount the stock has fallen....
