The Quicklink to today's hashpoint seems to be based off the wiki's time, which is based on UTC(?). Anyway, it's a bit behind Australia time (e.g. I'm typing this at 8:00am June 12, and it's giving me the hash for June 11).

I was just looking at this yesterday. Unfortunately, the wiki biultin variable of {{CURRENTDAY2}} is wikiserver time based, and there is no alternative. I've requested to zigdon a fix - in fact he expanded my request into two solutions. One is URL based (a variable in the URL to say that the location is 30W so use the date given for DJIA, but 'tomorrow' for the algorithm itself. The other is to have [+][-] buttons on the page itself to increment date without having to type it. This, imho, is nicer since everyone benefits it on the weekends :) --Nemo 22:34, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
