You can output the result of an expression by using curly brackets.

If you have 

int x;
x=10;
...

and you setup a trace point after x=10 witht he expression x={x}, it will output x=10 to your output window.

Just put an expression which gives you a timestamp inside the curly brackets, like timestamp={time(0)} (depending of course which API you use to get the time ....
