Does this histogram look right? R10

I've been advised that a good exposure for histograms should be in the middle, what do you think of this? Is it over exposed or underexposed? My issue is if I get the big curve to go in the middle of the picture, it looks darker, the other issue is I'm using a calibrate colour chart and their suggestion is the 4th grey patch should be RGB 128, to get it to 128 there's no way I can get the curve to be in the middle, am I missing something? This current histogram gets me close enough to 128 so does that mean the exposure is correct? IMG_4290.jpg
