Is there anything in the books or anywhere where you can have an idea what magic items you should have at what level in order to determine how much magic gear characters should have?
There's no assumed magic item math. There are some general guidelines as to what will work without breaking the system and some general guidelines on treasure, but there's no assumed X magic items per level.
That chart was in 3E and 4E, as well, and it's been explicitly removed from 5E. The game isn't going to tell you that you need 70,000gp worth of stuff at level 10. Whatever the DM feels like giving you, that's what you get.I'm speaking of the charts like Pathfinder has that if you are at x level you are likely to have x numbers of magic items, cash, etc.

There's something in the DMG. I don't know the page right now.
I can tell you this: at 5th level, the only magic item I got was one uncommon.
I'll echo Minsc, but I don't have the DMG with me. It's in the first chapter, regarding starting characters at higher levels, in a low-, medium-, or high-magic campaign. Nice table.
