Ok, so if i move the chord from my amp and guitar even by like an inch it makes this loving irritating buzzing noise

It could be the cable, or your guitar's jack or your amp.

your cable is bad, you need a new one. This happened with the cable that came with my guitar within a few weeks, just go out and buy a decent cable for like $30

Just backing up Melty. My guitar was buzzing in certain positions as well until I bought a new cord. There's a copper sensor in the ends of your guitar cable heads, there are two exposed wires that make contact with these copper pieces. If your wires aren't making contact correctly it either cuts off or buzzes loudly. While you CAN fix it yourself with electrical tape, I don't recommend it since it's easy to ruin the cord completely. Buy a new cord.

I recommend one of these:

Hosa cords are very good and very cheap.
