Techniques for Day Trading the ES, NQ, YM, MES, MNQ, and MYM

I entered on the dark candle after the large bo bar at 4410.75, stopped out at 4407.75. I have a bracket order set for +2.25 pts, -3.00 pts.
 
I am posting a third chart to later make some comments on. It is the same 5 min RTH's chart in my post #1341 BUT with the annotations removed. In other words a naked chart. Will explain later the charts and concepts...trades.. in these 3 charts that are in these two posts (#1341 and #1352). So far I haven't gotten back to trading. Only 2 trades this morning and many opportunities abounded for scalps of 1 to 8 points.

Could you look at the TIME at the bottom and tell me which candles? The time of the candles on that 2 min chart I posted. I think you are talking about an entry on the opening bar of RTH's (on the 2 min chart) and the SL on the next bar but cannot make any comments unless I know for sure.
 
Context for trade is more important than direction particularly when on 2 min charts without the benefit of a longer TF as well. But hey I too am still learning but doing it while trading and violating rule #1253 of @volpri without his permission :caution:

@cafeole replied "8:32" but @voltri may have missed the post?
