Default who shoots first?

I always thought that the first to move or shoot is the fleet that sits at the other side of a warp point but that is probably wrong. In one of my games I ran with a decent fleet from another big fleet and decided to use the warp point technique. For me it was 3 moves to warp and for my enemy 6. So I expected to warp and wait for him on the other side and then shoot first. But...
He shot first and killed ~30 ships. Anyway I had 90 remaining so I finished him. But this is frustraiting. I heard an opinion that the one who is faster always shoots first. Is this true? What about fighters/satellites then?
Thanx
