Here is an older post from someone whom I don't recall that May bring some light on the HUGH T TRADE:

When you see this show up, it is actually a trade covering a short position. Those who say it's mm's balancing their books are correct, but the way they off-handedly dismiss it as insignificant is disingenuous at best. What is being balanced is the short position taken during the trading day by the mm or someone for whom he is the agent. These most commonly occur when you have someone with a large quantity of shares selling into the retail trading float. The size and price of the t trade varies depending on how many shares they were able to short during the day, and at what price. Once the quantity and average price is known at the close of the trading day, the mm issues himself the t trade from the inventory he has been given by the selling party. The shares can be from a 504, private placement, formerly restricted shares, etc. It's a common P&D trick to sell shares from a pp or former restriction in this manner because they can say that the os hasn't changed, giving the false impression that there is no dilution."

Some people dream of success, while others wake-up and work hard at it.
