I think the most important step is NOT to release the clutch pedal before closing the bleeder valve, but closing the bleeder valve while it is still flowing is probably the best as indicated in the above post.

"You (now under the car with an 8mm (if I recall) wrench on the bleed screw call out "OPEN" and gently open the bleed screw and let some fluid out. ONLY KEEP IT OPEN FOR 1-2 SECONDS, then close it again. Call out "CLOSED"."
Or is it the following:
"Keep the bleeder open until the flow stops, then close the bleeder."
So which one is it? Short opening and closing intervals or until flow stops? (This is of course done after pumping pedal slowly 5 times and holding it down.) Perhaps this is different for different years?
