New translations are not suggested as matches - Trados Studio 2021

Question

If I translate a segment and the next segment is very similar, my new translation is not suggested as a match, but older entries from the TM appear as suggestions. How can I teach Trados to suggest my new translations as matches? The TMs are updated, an upgrade has been carried out.
You can see an illustration of my problem in segments 183 and 184 as well as my settings in the screenshots.

Screenshot of Trados Studio interface showing segments 183 and 184 with translation match percentages. Segment 184 does not suggest the recent translation from segment 183.

Screenshot of Trados Studio project settings with options for translation memory and automated translation adjustment highlighted, indicating potential areas to modify for improved match suggestions.

Thanks for your answers in advance.

Hi Lajos Herpai 
 Try disabling the Enable LookAhead option in the Automation options (File|Options then select Automation under Editor). To speed up the translation process, Studio starts preparing the translation resources (TM results, term recognition etc..) for the next segment before the current segment has been confirmed. This may be causing the issue you are experiencing.
