I'm between fish and sharks. I've been playing long enough and don't consider myself a fish, but I don't consider myself a shark

Well, this is a good question.
I've read 2 poker books from Dan Harrington (tournament poker strategy 1 and 2) and I'm familiar with odds, with positions, with ranges, with many things that a fish might not be familiar with, but I wouldn't say that I'm a shark.

I usually go in all-in situations with the most likely hand to win and I make racional decisions on how much should I raise or call.

All I could say is that I'm a clever and hard to catch fish at the pokertable. I eat many-many smaller fishes and I'm rarely outplayed but that happens, especially under pressures at the final tables.

On a rate from 1 to 10, I'd give myself around 6.5 - 7 on how good poker player am I.

When you knowing exactly why you bet, check or fold, what its purpose was - you are Shark.
If you're not sure - you're Fish.

fish ... but depending on the rivals I can become a shark

It's the Dunning-Kruger curve for me. I'm at the point where I feel like a shark, but know I would be the fish at any top-tier table.

How do you define whether you are a shark or a fish? Just about whether someone makes a profit or not? Or the style of play? I mean a maniac may play like a fish from the way he plays, but he can still make a profit for a certain period of time. In terms of the style of play, I would call myself a shark. I try to have a tight and aggressive style of play. So far I have remained without any real profit. Maybe I'm still making too many mistakes, maybe the variance in poker is just too great or a mixture of both.

Plain simple. Shark knows whats goin on on the table, sees and smells players weaknesses. Sure there can be a bigger shark out there, the fact that you can smell it does not make you fish, you still a shark. But whan you dont smell it - then you are a fish. Even if you are winning. It could be just for some time. It could even be so sharks sitting near you just waiting for you to get fatter and juicier. Sooner or later shark eat fish.

Apparently it all depends on who you will compare yourself with.

I don't think so. Sure there sharks of different sizes in the ocean, but the difference between shark and fish is quite strict. If you see a bigger shark thats good, seeing things is what basically make you a shark. You either do or you dont.
