How in chess notation one decides what mark put on a move like if it’s a strong move (!), weak move (?) very strong move (!!) or very weak move (??) if the game is not ended yet? A move could appear weak but actually leads to a strong sequence

As long I know, this are post-game notations, when you are analising a game you can mark like “questionable choise (?)”, like when giving up some pieces, making a non-forzated mistake or playing something really non-related to the current position (like when the best move is to castle or to do a easy-to-see trade, the player played pawn to a3)

The “!” and “!!” are when you do some hard-to-see plays, or finding the best choise in a difficult position in mid or late game. (following an opening isn’t “!” because they are very known, but finding a forced checkmate in 6 plays is a !!)
