Yes/good = Buy
No/bad = Short
This is a permanent market which trades on sentiment. The aim is to sell your stock when you believe your side has over-corrected and buy in/short it again once it's over-corrected to the other side. Essentially, it's meant to function like a traditional stock market.

Welcome to manifold! In addition to stocks, you can create markets like "Will Alyssa still be talking to Jason in a month" and bet on those too! If you bet YES you get money if it happens and lose money if it doesn't, and if you bet NO vice versa. You guys should try making some questions like that! That particular question probably doesn't make sense bc I have no idea what your community does but hopefully it gives an idea
Iirc, you unlock more mana by viewing or betting on other questions!
