There are a few poorly publicized uses for a T Trade on the Pinks. The most important factor here is that the only requirement of market makers by FINRA is that they must report all trades in a day. They are not required to do it when the actual trade occurs.

To avoid creating “an unbalanced market”, market makers often do not report certain trades during the day to the public and then use a T Trade not to “scare” investors into thinking a market for that stock is going in one direction or the other at the spurring of one large investor.
