Recently I'm having trouble with positioning myself such that I can hit the ball at the correct timing. How should I position myself on the table so that I can time the technique well?

Hi Jasper,

You need to watch the ball carefully and adjust your position according to the flight of the ball.

Moving in and out will help but also moving laterally across the table.  You can think about getting the ball at its highest point on the bounce.
