That puts the Fretting hand in a more natural position and it will be easier to play notes or chords. I struggled for months trying to use it on my leg like they showed us. No luck but as soon as I started using a strap setting down all my problems gradually went away. Hope this helps.

Thank you very much for sharing your experience with that!
