ignoring black cell (or part of the formule)

hello, 

 

table 1

table 2

 

out of the first table i collect data, to my dashboard (table 2) 

the problem i have is: that under kind of trade is a dropdownlist used as a filter with: real trade, example, mist trade and so on.

now is my question is: how do i make a formule were i get all the results if B3 is empty and the results if there's text in B3 like "real trade"

 

=SUMIFS('TRADES ENTRY'!$E:$E;'TRADES ENTRY'!$K:$K;DASHBOARD!B6;'TRADES ENTRY'!$F:$F;DASHBOARD!$C$3;'TRADES ENTRY'!$G:$G;DASHBOARD!$B$3)

 

thanks for helping!

    =SOMMEN.ALS('TRADES ENTRY'!$E:$E;'TRADES ENTRY'!$K:$K;DASHBOARD!B6;'TRADES ENTRY'!$F:$F;ALS(DASHBOARD!$C$3="";"*";DASHBOARD!$C$3);'TRADES ENTRY'!$G:$G;ALS(DASHBOARD!$B$3="";"*";DASHBOARD!$B$3))

     

    You are welcome! I've added dropdowns in cells B3 and C3 in the attached file. This formula checks in addition if in cell C3 long/short or an empty cell is selected.

        Which error message did you get when you opened the attached file from my first reply? I've translated the formula into dutch. Below you can see the results from my sheet. The formula works in Excel 2013 and Excel for the web on my computer.

         

        Sheet "DASHBOARD":

        Sheet "TRADES ENTRY":

      i copied only the part ="",",*",DASHBOARD!$B$3))

      i was bussy for a full week with this, and looked so many video's but could not find it..
