Peak formation in a descending channel

Short
bbatrading Updated   
FX:CADCHF   Canadian Dollar/Swiss Franc
We have a trend line structure in this setup, a descending channel. On the 240, we have a M peak formation at its 2nd leg, and in that 2nd leg, we also have a M formation on the 15-min, a timeframe that I use to enter my trades.
CADCHF is then a pretty good short opportunity. I'll be short from 0.7815 and I'll have a SL around 0.7825. If the trade hits my SL, I'll get back in according to my strategy.

TP1: 2.1 RR
TP2: 3.5 RR
Extended target: 15.5 RR

Total Risk: 21+35+155/10+10+10 = 211/30 = 7.03 Real Risk/Reward
Aggregate Risk: 2.1+3.5+15.5 = 21.1 Reward if all TP Hit.
Comment:
The targets RR have been miscalculated but you get the idea there
Comment:
RR: 20.1
Aggregate Risk: 6.7

Sorry for the inconvenience, I inverted the concepts and I had to remove 10 pips from the calculation of TP1.
TP1 RR is 1.1, not 2.1
That changes basically nothing but I had to notify.
Trade safe.
