Is it risky to sell options on CSX CORP (CSX) right now?

CSX CORP (CSX) currently scores 31 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (LOW) over a 4-week expiry window. The contributing signals are 2 recent news items and 10 active legal filings within the 4-week window. Below 45 is LOW: CSX's calendar looks clear across this window.
