Just built an AR 15 and fired it the bolt will not hold open.
Even when I push in on the latch. Any idea where I went wrong when I built it?

You need to pull the latch out, not push it in.
Make sure you installed the spring and plunger correctly under the bolt catch.
Sorta. It pivots, so you push on the bottom of the latch to hold the bolt open. Push on the top to release it.
