ASX 200 mining large-caps BHP Group Ltd (ASX: BHP) and Fortescue Ltd (ASX: FMG) were the two most traded ASX shares among investors using the Selfwealth trading platform last month.

Coming in third was buy now, pay later juggernaut Zip Co Ltd (ASX: ZIP), which is on track to be one of the best performing ASX shares of the year following a near 400% share price gain in the year to date.

Another interesting trend last month was a strong buying conviction for beaten-down supermarket stock, Woolworths Group Ltd (ASX: WOW).

The Woolworths share price has fallen to a four-year low amid industrial action and an ACCC inquiry into the pricing practices of Woollies and other supermarkets, including Coles Group Ltd (ASX: COL).

Selfwealth analysts said:

Despite these headwinds, Selfwealth investors were bullish towards WOW.

Ranking 12th for trade volumes across all ASX names, more than three-quarters of all trades were 'buys' – the highest sentiment across any name in the top 20.

As we have seen on numerous occasions across the Selfwealth community, investors showed strong conviction in a company that has been sold down sharply.

Let's check out the other top 10 most traded ASX shares last month.
