Do I have my calipers mounted correctly?

Hey guys!, Stupid rookie question. I finaly got my calipers bolted up to my Scott's front end, and I am not sure if I have them on the proper sides. In the pic you will be looking at the left front. I have the caliper mounted with the bleed screw at the highest point. Is this correct?

If I swap them from side to side that would put the bleed screws at the bottom and the banjos at the top. Seems to me the bleed screw should go up as this is where the air will be trapped in the cylinder. No? Does it even matter?

P.S. disregard the 90degree banjo fitting that just the for referenc I will be using a straight one.

You are correct. The bleed screw always goes to the top.
