You can see on 12-March-2017 when the NYC DST switchover happens and the server starts an hour late for some reason; the open time of 9pm GMT is correct, but the current session from Symbol.MarketHours is still showing 10pm daily rollover. Guessing this is why TimeTillClose is returning 1h too much?
Also, into April and the server is now starting at the correct time - roughly 9pm - but the session info is still an hour out and now TimeTillClose is indicating that there is still an hour left of the previous trading day!
I can code around this using DST information from NodaTime, but thought you might want to fix this.

Hi there,
Market hours are set by the brokers. You might want to contact your broker instead.
Best regards,
