The magic numbers are openly available in MT4, both via the MQL4 programming, as well as on your trading history.
In your code, once you have selected the order via OrderSelect, you can obtain its magic number via the function OrderMagicNumber.

I'm not the developer of the EA, and I can't write a code to build an EA. I'm just a user. When the trades still open, how can I know the magic number of that trade in MT4?

As I stated, the Magic number is visible in the Trade History. Just hover over the ticket number of the order with your mouse and a tooltip will appear.

Dear everybody,
I have an EA that I run simultaneously on several charts at once, on just one symbol pair, but with different time frames. Of course I did this as a strategy to reduce the risk as small as possible. But the problem is, if a trade is opened by the EA, on more than one chart simultaneously, and I have to evaluate which trade comes from a particular chart, I can't do it because the magic number cannot be known in MT4.
I can find out the magic number of a trade easily in MT5. Is there a method or indicator or EA that can help identify magic numbers in MT4? Thank you for the info
