I'm trying to create a chaos army that represents all 4 factions....it's more of a fluff army...but I do want it to be fairly competitive.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Representing all 4 factions can be fluffy but is usually not very effective game-wise.
The army lacks anti-tank.

Sorry about that.....

so 12 melta guns is not enough? 10 of which are infiltrating? Initially I didn't have the Raptors, they were Vinidicators....

ok....just finished a game with this list and all I can say is "RAPTORS SUCK!!!" all they did was get shot to little pieces...and when they did hit H2H they did nothing...would have been better to take a squad with bolters....so, i've changed the list a little bit...added some armour and things to deal with armour.

REMOVED - 2 squads of Raptors, 1 squad of chosen (although I did like all the melta love!!!)

INSERTED - Squad of Terminators (5) with Champion, heavy flamer, 3 lightning claws, icon of Slaanesh - Vindicator with Daemonic Possession, increased the size of my IoT units to 9 (just for the fluff)...and through rough math, I think that leaves me with 9 points...let's see if this does the trick...

A game vs an MEQ army?
I'd go for two Noise Marine squads in Rhinos, with doom siren.
Drive by and flame the enemy. This weapon is awesome.

Raptors do indeed suck the way you were running them.

Try 2 squads of 20 each with mark of tzeentch.

Still a little weak because of only 1 hidden PF, but they can swamp most armies that can't handle CC. IG, Tau, etc.
