AH trades (aka t-trades):

1) within 90 seconds after the market closes = normal tradings but so close to 4 pm that it didn't get posted on time.

FOR MORE THAN 90 SECONDS

2) used by financial institutions that are non MMs to report larger trades that occurred during market hours. But they don't have access to ACT (Automated Confirmation Transcation Service) use FORM T to report. These transactions are typically used by larger investors to buy larger lots at prearranged prices without risking to drive the price upward or downward.

3) Certain transactions may clear and settle outside of the regular clearing system ("ex-clearing" transactions), where two dealers make an arrangement to settle trades between them outside the clearing system. Manually via Ex-Clearing. Ex-Clearing is a manual comparison process that is performed by the brokerage firm’s Purchase and Sales Department. Unusual short coverings can end up settle this way
