Default Piston install question

OK this may be completely retarded of me but I need to ask and get clarification. I have installed pistons before on a previous rebuild and the markings on the piston have always had some thing showing which direction the pistons are suppose to go. Like a little rivet or dimple forged into the pistons. I bought some wiseco's and they have the same dimple however the instructions tell me to put the offset opposite the rotation of the crank. Now if I am correct the offset is the little notch where the wrist pin goes in the pitcure below



Funny thing is, if I put it in that way the markings on the top of the piston showing which direction they are suppose to go in are opposite. Any thoughts?
