It's been a pretty cracking start to the trading week for the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) so far this Monday. At the time of writing, the ASX 200 has gained a healthy 1.1% and is back above 6,860 points.   

So let's dig deeper into these share market moves and take a look at the ASX 200 shares that are currently topping the share market's trading volume charts, according to investing.com.

The 3 most traded ASX 200 shares by volume this Monday

Pilbara Minerals Ltd (ASX: PLS)

First up today is the ASX 200 lithium share Pilbara Minerals. This Monday has had a decent 19.96 million Pilbara shares find a new owner so far. There hasn't been any new news out of Pilbara today. But that hasn't stopped the company's share price from rising a pleasing 4.93% to $5.11 a share.

This could be due to a number of ASX lithium shares delivering their well-received quarterly reports today. In any case, the large gains we have seen with Pilbara shares are probably the cause of the trading volumes we are seeing.

AMP Ltd (ASX: AMP)

ASX 200 financial services provider AMP is our next share today. AMP has had a significant 22.13 million of its shares change hands as it currently stands.

AMP shares have also had a strong day today, despite not much in the way of news out from the company. In fact, AMP has just hit a new 52-week high of $1.26 a share after rising more than 4% in value. It's likely that it is this that has elicited the elevated volumes we are seeing.

Core Lithium Ltd (ASX: CXO)

Our final share is another ASX 200 lithium share in Core Lithium. Core Lithium has had a hefty 22.18 million shares swapping accounts today. As mentioned earlier, Core Lithium is one of the ASX lithium shares that has reported its quarterly results today.

As my Fool colleague Brooke covered at the time, this contained some exciting news regarding the company's lithium and gold exploration activities. Investors are in agreement, seeing as the Core Lithium share price has gained a robust 4.1% to $1.40 a share. This is probably why Core Lithium is topping today's volume charts thus far.
