The same question has been asked for Xcode 3 But the solution there is said to not work with Xcode4. And no new solution is available there.
How to get a key-binding to move the curser up/down about 10 lines in Xcode 4 ?

If you want to add multiple cursors at the same column, instead of wasting time aiming and clicking, you can use the arrow key to navigate. Hold ⌃ – Control and ⇧ - SHIFT then ↑ or ↓ to add cursors to the line above and below your current position. You can deselect a cursor by hit the arrow in the opposite direction.
First, hold Shift and Control (^) and then click where you want to select multiple lines and then start typing. One small caveat: unlike other text editors where you can click that same line to unselect the multi-line selection, Xcode doesn't support that yet.
1) Moving a full line or many lines of code up or down using: ⌘ ⌥ { to move up and ⌘ ⌥ } to move down. If you have text selected, Xcode will move each line containing your selection; otherwise, it'll move the line the cursor is in.
Eureka! Inspired by the answer on line duplication, this is how you empower Xcode 4 with multiple-line movement:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Frameworks/IDEKit.framework/Versions/A/Resources
IDETextKeyBindingSet.plist.Customized and two new command (say, Move Down 10 and Move Up 10) keys as the screenshot below:
Set a key combination for both commands:
Free at last from the shackles of the Jump To shortcut. Enjoy it!
Unleash the cursor outside Xcode following with these steps:
~/Library/KeyBindings
DefaultKeyBinding.dict.{
"^~n" = ("moveUp:", "moveUp:", "moveUp:", "moveUp:", "moveUp:", "moveUp:", "moveUp:", "moveUp:", "moveUp:", "moveUp:");
"^~p" = ("moveDown:", "moveDown:", "moveDown:", "moveDown:", "moveDown:", "moveDown:", "moveDown:", "moveDown:", "moveDown:", "moveDown:");}
All of the above works on 10.8.2 with Xcode 4.5.1.

Looks like it is impossible. Answering myself to be able to close.
