Honestly I see T trades all the time for years, and all they are is the MM's trading in the dark pool or cross trading. They do that behind the scenes so they dont disrupt any movement of the stock. Which can work either way, meaning its not good cuz the stock wont rise with the trades, but its not bad because the stock didnt dump either. All in all, the only real effect it has is adding more to the daily volume.

Here is a solid explanation:

The only requirement of market makers by FINRA is that they must report all trades in a day. They are not required to do so 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. If a market maker wants to accumulate a large amount of a stock in one trading day, that market maker may actually not report any of the trades that occurred until the trading day has ended so as not to alert the market to the collection. This practice is completely legal under the FINRA rules of the OTC Markets so long as the trade is reported at the end of the day.
