Can you fix my Ctrl+Left Ctrl+Shift+Left script?

It's only slightly not like I wanted it. It works fine, but if I want to hold down the functions it will perform actions once and add numbers instead of repeating the function. I wanted something to speed up the process of Ctrl+left arrow, and Ctrl+shift+left arrow, and Ctrl+Right Arrow & Ctrl+Shift+Right Arrow so that I can work with text faster. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNRCQx0eWA0 You can view an example of what I am referring to here, and what's going wrong. I've marked the mistakes within the title of the video.

Remove down from all commands. Correct syntax is:

^1::
    send ^{left}
return

To make repetitions you can write a number inside figure brackets, e.g. to repeat selection 5 times: 

^+5::
    send ^+{right 5}
return

Keys := ["1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","0"]
for each, key in Keys
{
    Hotkey, ^%key%, Ctrl_Key, On 
    Hotkey, ^+%key%, Ctrl_Key, On
}
return

Ctrl_Key:
    last_Key := ""
    Index := ""
    last_Key := SubStr(A_ThisHotkey, 0)
    If (last_Key = 0)
        Index = 5
    else
    If (last_Key < 6)
        Index := last_Key + 1
    else
        Index := last_Key - 4
    Loop %Index%
    {
        If (last_Key < 6) and (last_Key > 0)
        {
            If GetKeyState("Shift","P")
                Send +^{Left}
            else
                Send ^{Left}
        }
        else
        {
            If GetKeyState("Shift","P")
                Send +^{Right}
            else
                Send ^{Right}
        }
    }
    ; Don't repeat the action before key is released: 
    KeyWait, %last_Key%
return

See For-Loop, Hotkey and SubStr in the documentation and feel free to ask if you don't understand something.
