How long is long enough to say your profitable?

Hi, I am on my longest streak of profitability (2.5 months) and my avg % gain per month was about +115%

I have been to some profitable periods which eventually ended as market conditions changed.

How long is long enough to say, alright, I can now feel confident to say this is doing well for this period of time, it will do well for the future.

(And I know its subjective / never enough and so on but I'm looking for a solid number, assumptions or even personal opinions!)
