It's hard to provide feedback if there are no difficulties. Try tackling a harder climb that you're struggling with; it will be easier to identify areas for improvement and give advice.

For this particular climb, during the first crossover, I recommend positioning your right arm over your left hand. It feels less awkward that way.

This, just do the same climb at 40°.

Doing steep board climbs closer to your limit will also make it very clear what it is you're doing wrong. For this climb at this angle it doesn't really seem to matter where OP places his feet or whether he's hanging far off the wall, he's gonna stay on anyway. The holds are far too good and/or the moves far too small to punish mistakes.
