`str.format_time(time, format, timezone)` allows you to convert a Unix timestamp into a formatted string, while also allowing its translation to a timezone:

indicator("str.format_time")
if timeframe.change("1D")
    // Time in exchange tz.
    formattedTime1 = str.format_time(time, "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm", syminfo.timezone)
    // Time in UTC tz using `str.format()`.
    formattedTime2 = str.format("{0,time,yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm}", time)
    // Time in UTC tz using `str.format_time()`.
    formattedTime3 = str.format_time(time, "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm", "UTC")
    label.new(bar_index, high, formattedTime1 + "\n" + formattedTime2 + "\n" + formattedTime3)
