We study the motion of charged particles around Schwarzschild black holes immersed in external (i) asymptotically uniform, (ii) dipolar, and (iii) parabolic-like magnetic fields. The effect of the different magnetic-field configurations on the position of innermost stable circular orbits (ISCOs) for test-charged particles is analyzed. Furthermore, we investigated frequencies of radial and vertical oscillations of the charged particles along their stable circular orbits together with the Keplerian one. As an astrophysical application, we explore quasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs) observed in microquasars sourced by black hole candidates in the frame of the relativistic precession (RP) model. In order to obtain constraints on the values of the magnetic parameter and black hole mass for the microquasars GRO J1655-40 and GRS 1915-105, we use the method so-called in the Bayesian approach. Also, we get constraints on the magnetic field around the black hole in the microquasars by treating electrons and protons as oscillating test-charged particles in the accretion disc. Our performed analyses show that the masses of black hole candidates in the above-mentioned objects and magnetic parameters are different for the uniform and dipolar magnetic field configurations. However, no constraints on the magnetic field and black hole masses are obtained in the case of a parabolic magnetic field configuration. The obtained results on the black hole masses are compared with the measurements in independent astrophysical observations of these black hole masses.
