Hi Matt, I bought aggressive the double bottom in ES but didn't
hold or had patient to have a runner for the breakout and move
higher. How can I get better at holding more the trade? I very
often get out too quick because of day trading mentality.

I'm not Matt, but track the stats and do it for 100 trades.
Track how much you made, and how much you would have made if you
moved up your stop to each higher low on say the 60 minute until
you were stopped out. Maybe try and pick three different stop/take
profit methods to track. Compiling stats can help psychologically
with seeing what methodology may work better.
