For those of you that use a 5 minute chart, when do you normally enter your order, at the 5 minute mark when the candle changes or during the candle formation? I normally use a 1 or 2 minute chart to enter and refer to the 5 minute but have been using the 5 minute for entries as well.

I would just enter after the close of the candle/bar. You're already on a puny time frame ...how small do you need to go.
