I have gotten used to keeping my fingers floating while alternate picking due to the fact that I mostly enjoy playing with hybrid picking as well so, I was thinking:

how do you prefer your right hand fingers while performing - floating or leaned towards the guitar body? What are the advantages of your approach?
