What we stated previously still holds. The issue is that you have Session Times starting at 01:15. As such, with a 40 minute Bar Period, you will have a bar at 01:55, as you note above, regardless of the DST setting. The reason the DST comes into play is that the exchange does not start until 02:15 when DST is active. Therefore, the first trade will be at 02:15 and not at 01:15. Therefore, the first bar that covers this time is the one at 01:55. Hence the reason for the bar at that time. When you have 1 minute bars it does not show this as you actually have a 1 minute bar at 02:15. The same is true for 60 minute bars - you have a new bar that will start at 02:15.
