max abs not returning results

Hello,

why this query does not return any results while there are events ?

sourcetype=timekeeper_status host=* | eval offsets=(offsets."0")  | timechart span=30s max(abs(offsets."0")) by host

The max aggregator needs a field to work with, not a calculated value

sourcetype=timekeeper_status host=* | eval offsets=(offsets."0") 
| eval absoffsets=abs(offsets."0")
| timechart span=30s max(absoffsets) by host
