No two pros like them the same way. I like my FSA K wings hook ends to point at the rear axle. This isn't the best for drop use...I use drops maybe 15% of the time therefore the priority is on the hoods. I like the top foward curve of the bar to point slightly up along with the hoods. This isn't so much about bar height as it is about how my hand fits to the hoods. If hoods are level I am less comfortable. The only way in my experience to determine what is best is trial and error. I suggest you don't wrap your bars and change the position of the shifters on the bars up and down as well as experiment with bar angle. To me bar position is always a compromise between ergos on the hoods versus drops. I defer to the position I ride the most which is hoods but not to the exclusion of having the drops work fine.
