Well said Aurora97, we never know this might be god's hand.
Anyway, it happens. So, bear in mind that we can be either who benifited or loser.
We need to keep the market as fair as we can.
Or else, how long can the market sustain the players if there are bully on the rules loophole?
Since the introduction of KLCI FBM30, the KLCI no longer reflect the overall market condition, so the index is already not so "fair" in the first place.
We also see lot of 1 batang at the end of each month, to prop up/down the KLCI which affecting the settlemet price a few points as well.

If the TCP agreed on 17.00, the transaction will be carried on 4.50pm.
But it was on 4.52pm, and the KLCI index was fixed on 4.50pm.
After the KLK transaction, the Bursa have to clarify and announce the KLCI was inflated to higher level at end of the day.
I don't know the reason of the transaction matched was time at 4.52pm. Only 2 possibilities
Either the system/software bug which TCP was 13.68, but matching is done at 17.00 after someone keyed in 17.00 which is unlikely, as if it is the case, cancellation order would be allowed, just like last time when Bursa's server hang due to limit down after 308.
or
this could be the reason of delay

With regards to Monday’s incident, the market order that was keyed in matched with all the other ‘sell’ orders in the order book up to the highest price available until the quantity of the order was fulfilled.”
He added that the market order also triggered the “reserve” status in which matching would be temporarily halted for dealers to take stock of the prices in the order book.
“Basically, this is a cooling-off period to allow dealers to examine the orders they have put in vis-a-vis the current prices in the order book,” he said, pointing out that in this regard, the affected party (the broker who made the bid) did not withdraw the order when the order was in “reserve” status.
“As such, the exchange takes this order as a valid order,” he added.
