Magic number manager OrderByMagic EA

- 버전: 1.1
OrderByMagic is a display-only Indicator for MT5. It reads all open positions on your account and shows them grouped by Magic Number directly on the chart — updated every 2 seconds. It never opens, closes, or modifies any trade.

The Magic Number collision problem
Every EA stamps a Magic Number on the orders it opens so it can identify and manage them later. When you run multiple EAs at the same time, each one must have a unique Magic Number. In practice this often goes wrong:
• You attach a new EA and forget to change its default Magic Number (commonly 0 or 12345) — it silently collides with an existing strategy.
• You attach the same EA to two charts (e.g. EURUSD M15 and GBPUSD H1) with the same Magic Number.
• After a VPS reboot you re-attach an EA and accidentally type the wrong number in the input dialog.
• You use a purchased EA with a hardcoded Magic Number that clashes with your own.
⚠ A collision means two EAs may manage each other's orders — closing or modifying trades they did not open. This causes unpredictable losses.
Why the MT5 Trades tab is not enough
The built-in Trades tab shows all positions in a flat list. It does not group by Magic Number, has no colour-coding per strategy, and requires manually adding the "Magic" column. Scanning 20+ positions across 5 strategies is slow and error-prone. OrderByMagic EA puts the grouped view directly on your price chart so you never have to leave it to audit positions.
| Situation | Without this EA | With this EA |
| Running 3 EAs on 3 pairs | Hard to tell which orders belong to which EA | Each EA's orders in a separate labelled block |
| Re-attaching EA after VPS reboot | Risk of typing wrong Magic Number in the dialog | See all active Magic Numbers before you type |
| Testing a new EA alongside live EAs | New EA may use Magic 0 and interfere with manual trades | Confirm Magic 0 is free before starting |
