In Haydn's F minor variations for piano, how does one attack the continuous trills, one note after the other?

The 6 means the same it always does: "These notes must be shortened so that there are 6 of them to one beat rather than 4."– Kilian FothJun 2, 2015 at 8:04

Are you asking about Haydn or Beethoven?– AakashMJun 4, 2015 at 14:00

Haydn! there is a variation that has nothing but a continuous set of trills in the right hand.– neusysJun 12, 2015 at 3:09

For longer trills use 123231... or 32313231...– user21079Jun 21, 2015 at 23:49

I'm going to assume you mean this part of Hob.XVII:6. This is from the Edition Peters score.
I think that the extension of the trill notation throughout the whole bar is simply a convenience to avoid having to write tr~~~tr~~~tr~~~tr~~~; it should be played simply as a succession of trills. Although what's going on with the fingering in bar 86, I have no idea.
