You have to use the magic number in your EA, or choose EAs that handle this magic. See these articles The Optimal Method for Calculation of Total Position Volume by Specified Magic Number and The Use of ORDER_MAGIC for Trading with Different Expert Advisors on a Single Instrument.

Alternatively you can use 2 different accounts or find a broker who provide several name for the same pairs.

simply have two charts for the symbol open ie: M1 and M5  and apply the EAs accordingly.

The issue will come in that MT5 has a single position so those EA's will need to be able to handle that otherwise they will get muddled up and potentially opening/closing wrong.

There are a number of articles about on how to manage virtual positions  in MT5 do a search.
