A production sizer needs more than a confidence-aware probability signal. Three gaps are common: payoff asymmetry (b != 1), hard drawdown constraints, and path-dependence in dynamic sizing backtests.
Kelly adds payoff awareness and has a fixed crossover with z-score based get_signal near p ≈ 0.88. Below that, Kelly is materially more aggressive in the typical 0.52–0.65 range where probability error is highest. Above the crossover, get_signal saturates faster and becomes more aggressive.
A practical architecture is two-stage. Stage 1: get_signal with concurrency correction and discretization. Stage 2: a capped fractional-Kelly multiplier derived from (p, b) to adjust for win/loss ratios while preserving concurrency handling.
For prop firm constraints, map remaining drawdown budget into the bet_size_dynamic sigmoid w, flattening size continuously as loss ...
